-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I. Introduction
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This walkthrough is for finishing the game with the goal of being able to
choose between both endings at the very end in mind. For the most part, I will
assume you will have no trouble beating the enemies. The guide will focus on
the puzzle aspects of the game.
The guide will be split by the time portal of past, present, and location on
the map. I'd try my best so you can follow what I'm doing. It might be tough
without any pictures, so try and visualize the best that you can.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
II. Remarks
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*******************************************************************************
[Part A: General Words]
*******************************************************************************
The Walkthrough is meant for the puzzle aspect. When I have more time and when
I feel up to it, I'd go back through to mark out all the locations for
different artwork chest and special weapons. But I'm sure someone will
eventually release an In-Depth FAQ that'd cover those aspects.
Currently, I have problems backtracking and obtaining Life Upgrade #2, #4, and
#6 starting from the very end of the game. If you would like to try and help,
please refer to the Addendums section on "Backtracking for Life Upgrades."
You'd be credited of course =)
If there are any part of this walkthrough that's unclear or if some parts need
elaboration, please write to me at fudgeit2k@hotmail.com with a proper subject
heading.
If you see the FAQ/Walkthrough on any website other than
http://www.GameFAQs.com or http://www.GameSpot.com please email me as well at
fudgeit2k@hotmail.com
*******************************************************************************
[Part B: Dealing with Glitches]
*******************************************************************************
I have been getting quite a bit of emails about some particular glitches.
#1 - "I just fought a boss and now I'm at the beach with no where to go. Your
FAQ says I should be chased by the Dahaka, but that doesn't happen!"
- This happens with people playing on the PS2 with leaked/pirated version. Buy
the game and you should be able to play through no problem.
#2 - "I didn't see a cut scene with the Dahaka breaking open a wall! Now I'm
standing at the [beam] like you said and jumped to the broken wall. But I
can't go anywhere!"
- This also happens with people playing on the PS2 with leaked/pirated version.
But, it is also a genuine bug that happens to a few people and when they
restarted the game from earlier save, it went away (or so I've been told).
#3 - "I'm at the end game where you push $#&(@%& through the [Time Portal].
But when I try to follow and enter the [Time Portal], it doesn't do a thing!"
- I don't know why this is happening. I suggest an earlier savegame and try
it again. If not, I attribute this to the initial reason, buy the game, and
it should go away.
#4 - "I just turned into an ugly looking creature! How did I become so ugly
all of the sudden?"
- The game just glitched on you. If this happens, don't immediately try to
load your other save games, rather turn off the game and then reload another
save game and hope you still aren't the ugly wraith. If you are, try to get
the game exchanged.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
IV. Walkthrough
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*******************************************************************************
[Part 1: The Pirate Ship]
*******************************************************************************
Segment 1 - On deck (File 01/21)
It's linear. Fight the boarders, and just keep moving. There is a certain
spot that you might have to trigger to cause some explosion to happen. When
it's done right, some guy will fall from above, causing you to drop down.
Segment 2 - In ship (File 01/21)
You land on water, drink, and move forward. Linear.
Segment 3 - On deck (File 01/21)
You get back on deck. Kill the enemies then move toward the captain's
quarters. Here, you fight boss.
[Boss Tip - Shahdee Fight #1]
- Just slash and block. When she blocks, start to block her furry of attacks.
In the middle of her combo, hit X to do a combo brreeeaaker.
- Jumping over her works really well too.
*******************************************************************************
[Part 2: On Shore]
*******************************************************************************
Segment 1 - Beach - Present (File 02/21)
((PC SAVEGAME 12/13/2004 00:34))
Save Title: [Wreckage]
Goal: [Reach the Fortress Entrance (Present)]
Linear. Hop, jump, do whatever the tutorial tells you to do. It's easy
enough.
When you jump across a rather big chasm after you saved the game. You'd have
to jump up on ledge toward the north part of the screen.
On reaching what seem to be a dead end of tree trunk? Jump off to a floating
island of sort toward south. Then move toward the right side of the screen,
jumping and leaping.
You'd reach an area with bunch of poles. Jump up on the poles, then go from
one pole to the next until you reach the next area.
In the next area, you should see a "rat hole" that you'd be able to roll
through. Go in.
Keep going until you reach a portcullis/gate. Climb up on the rock to the left
of the gate, then run up the wall to hang on the top. Go over.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Segment 2 - Fortress Entrance - Present (File 02/21)
Goal: [Reach the Fortress Entrance (Present)]
Go straight. Cut scene. Fight. Move back toward the portcullis and the door
to the left of the portcullis should now be open.
Fountain on your left.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Segment 3 - Fortress Entrance - Present (File 02/21)
((PC SAVEGAME 12/13/2004 00:47))
Save Title: [The Ruined Fortress]
Goal: [Reach the Fortress Entrance (Present)]
Jump and leap until you reach a big room, and ravens come together to form a
monster. A tip -- jumping over him and slashing him in the process is the best
way to go. (I'm playing as I write this, and I don't even bother killing him)
From the initial entrance looking at where the raven monster was, turn right
and run up the wall there to reach the upper levels. Remember you have to run
up the wall, then JUMP before you reach the apex to bounce off the wall.
Run against the wall toward the column, and jump to grab on the column. Jump
across the columns until you land on the next platform.
Turn right and you'd be staring at another chasm. Run against the wall and
grab a hold of the ledge on the opposite side. Go up on the platform, then run
against the wall back to where you first came and you should grab on the ledge
above. Pull yourself up. Jump up. Pull yourself up and you should see a pole
to the right of you. Jump across.
At the platform, you should see a button on the wall. Run up the wall and hit
the button, then go through the door.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Segment 4 - Fortress Entrance - Present (File 02/21)
Save Title: [???]
Goal: [Reach the Fortress Entrance (Present)]
You're now in a room with curtain to your right. Follow the tutorial, and get
to the bottom of the room. I ignored all the enemies here, but you can kill
them if you like.
When you're done with surveying the room, there is a pole in the middle of the
room, with rock steps to its left (if you look from where you came in). Go up
on the rock steps, then wall-run up to grab on the ledge. Shimmy around the
ledge and go on the platform.
Kill the one enemy here, then move to the end of the platform. You should be
able to look down on the whole room. The ledge you need to be on is the
opposite end. Wall-run on LEFT WALL across to grab a hold of the ledge (you
need to be hanging instead of standing on the ledge), then shimmy around and out
of the room.
You should be in a hall way now. Keep going straight, you'd see Shahdee, and
follow her through the Time Portal.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Segment 5 - Fortress Entrance - Past (File 02/21)
((PC SAVEGAME 12/13/2004 00:51))
Save Title: [First Steps in the Past]
Goal: [Chase the Girl in Black (Past)]
Move back toward the direction from where you came. Traps are active now.
Avoid the spinning spike columns. Time your wall-run so you won't get hit.
The game will now pan across a room with focus on a button and curtain. That's
where you need to go. From the entrance, go into the room and the perspective
should change. Go north and jump on the pole, shimmy up and jump off onto the
ledge of the column. Shimmy toward the left and get up on the platform. You
should hit the treasure chest for artwork. Run around the corner of the
platform and you should see the entrance below. Jump across and hang on the
ledge above the entrance. Shimmy around the ledge and then stand on top to
jump across. Now, you should be able to see the button. Wall-run on RIGHT WALL
across the button, then drop down via the curtain. Run through the door.
This room should look familiar. Don't leave it quite yet, we want to get the
[First Life Upgrade]!
Head left instead of going into the trap filled hallway. Wall-run up, and jump
across to platform on top. Wall-run on LEFT WALL across to the next platform.
Now, go to the stair steps, and instead of going up, there should be a small
area to the left of the stair with barrels and button. Break the barrel, and
activate the button. This is going to be really hard, and requires you to be
REALLY fast (or you can come back later after you get Eye of the Storm). You
need to run up the wall of the stair step and hop over the railing (so you don't
need to go around). As you are going up the stairs, hug the left wall, and use
wall run -- this makes you run faster. When you reach the top, run for the
little rat hole quick as you can, and roll -- hope you make it in. You can do
it, I did it.
Another method of making it, is by using roll ALL the way. Activate the button
then jump over the railing of the step. Soon as you land, start rolling up the
steps and don't stop jamming on the roll button until you are through the rat
hole! <<- Benjamin H>>
Trap 1 - [Bar Smasher, Rotating Blade, Floor spikes] When the bar is
retracting, wall run on the right.
Trap 2 - [2x Bar smasher, rotating blade, floor spike] When the bars are
retracting, roll under the blade, and run.
Trap 3 - [Bar Smasher, 2x rotating blade, floor spike] When bars are
retracting, wall run past the blade, then jump across to get on top of the bar
smasher. As it retracts, jump and land into the corner safe from the last
rotating blade. Roll through the last blade, and get your health.
Retrace your step. You can run across the spikes on the floor. Wall run up
and activate the button. Roll through the rat hole. Go down the stairway, run
toward where the poles are, then drop down. Move on through to the next room
where the moving rotating vertical spikes are. Avoid the first set of spike by
walking around them. Roll under the second spike. Move around the third set,
and you should be at a fountain.
Move through and then go up the stairs toward the fortress. (I didn't kill
them again, and just ran through).
Up the stairs, and you should see [spinning blade], roll under it and jump
across to the ledge. Jump up on the ledges until you are hanging off the very
top one and shimmy across. Drop down until you are standing on the bottom
ledge, and jump across. Avoid the [spinning blades] and keep moving. You
should now be in the [Central Hall]. You'd come to know the [Central Hall]
like the back of your hands. Kill the enemies if you like, I didn't.
From where you came into the [Central Hall], climb up on the ledges on your
left until you reach the top. You should now face a bunch of columns. Jump
across poles until you reach the opposite side platforms.
On the platform, wall-run up one level, and you should be on the same level as
the balcony with a red curtain. Wall-run on LEFT WALL, then jump across to the
balcony. Go through and you should see [rotating spike column] then a chasm,
then another [rotating spike column] then another chasm. Once you cross all
that, you'd come to a ladder.
You should now be at a huge chasm, with two rotating spike columns. Wall-run
across when you get the timing down. You should be at another ladder, with
three criss-crossing spike columns. Go down when you get the timing down (it
looks harder than it is). At the bottom of the ladder (don't drop down), jump
across to the ledge, shimmy around and jump onto the ladder then go all the way
down. Spike floor, then fountain.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Segment 6 - Southern Passage - Past (File 02/21)
Save Title: [Chasing the Girl in Black]
Goal: [Chase the Girl in Black (Past)]
Spiked floor with rotating spike column -- go when you feel you got the timing
down. If you mess up, drink from the fountain, don't waste your Sand Tanks.
You should come up to another set of rotating spike columns. Move around them,
easy enough.
Cut scene, Shahdee winks. Kill the enemies if you feel like it. Now, from the
entrance, as you look down the room, there should be columns on your left and
right. On the right, there should be a column with a step on it and a [bar]
above. Use the bar, swing up and get up on the next set. Now, turn about
until you can shimmy across and be able to swing up to the platform on the
north (a enemy stands on there too). Once on platform, move across the [beam]
to the next platform. Turn about and jump up on the [bar] and swing up to the
next [bar]. At this bar, you'd need to swing up toward the wall and wall jump
off to hang off the beam. Jump off the beam toward the room (platform) with a
gate on it.
Kill the one ninja girl, and go to the gate facing out as if you just walked
into the room. You should see sun beam, with [wood lattice walkway]. Go hang
off the platform, on the far end toward the lattice walkway and jump onto it.
Move across the walkway and get onto the platform on the far end.
Jump onto the platform, and kill the shadow and the guard. Now, you should see
a big red curtain. Hang off the platform, and jump onto the curtain. About
3/4 way down, jump off the curtain onto another platform. Move across the
beam, jump up when the ninja girl comes, then slash her. Move onto the
platform, then jump up on the beam. Jump toward the next beam, wall jump off
to the next beam up, then jump into the platform. From this platform, you
should see another wood walkway lattice. Jump onto it, move across, kill the
girl that challenges you. Jump up and trigger the [bar] switch. Now, jump
onto the red curtain. Go through the gate now.
Go down the steps, and hang off the ledge. Use the curtain, then jump off onto
the beam. From beam, jump to next beam. Jump across to next beam. Jump to
next beam. Jump onto the walkway, and run to avoid the spike trap. Use
Fountain.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Segment 7 - Sacrificial Altar - Past (File 02/21)
((PC SAVEGAME 12/13/2004 01:13))
Save Title: [A Damsel in Distress]
Goal: [Chase the Girl in Black (Past)]
[Boss Tip - Shahdee Fight #2 (last one unfortunately)]
Well, this is my third time through the game, and I wondered what'd happen if I
just let Shahdee kill the "damsel." You lose. So kill Shahdee. Same tactic

Goal: [Reach the Hourglass Chamber (Past)]
Your [Second Life Upgrade]! Go up the steps to what looks like a big throne
with blood all over. Pull the throne to reveal a hidden doorway in the back.
First trap - Spiked floor with two rotating spike columns. Timing -- stay in
the middle of the path, and predict where the columns will go toward the end of
your trip. Then, avoid.
Second trap - Spiked floor with rotating spike column and rotating blade.
Start running when the column is hitting the bottom. As soon as you pass the
column, start running on the wall, this should get you through the rotating
blade.
Third trap - Wall blade, spiked floor, and rotating blade. Start running
across the wall when the blade is going down just above your height. When you
land, try to roll to avoid the blade.
Fourth trap - Spiked floor, moving rotating spiked columns. Run toward the
spike column as it moves toward you. Roll under and keep running.
As you exit the life upgrade area and back to where you fought Shahdee. Look
to your left, and you should see rock steps that you can climb on. Get on, and
jump across to a ledge. Shimmy to your right, and then jump on the [bar].
Swing up to the next ledge and then jump across moving left. Shimmy around,
and jump on another [bar] going left still. Swing up, wall jump up to the
[bar] above. Turn around, and swing up on platform.
Run up the wall, and get on the rope. Swing across and land on the [beam].
Jump across, and save at the fountain.

From the fountain, move right toward the broken bridge. Hang off, and drop
down to a small beam below. Jump across and shimmy over to the right. Now,
jump across to the column to the north with a ledge. Shimmy around, then ump
across to the [bar]. Swing up and land on another beam. Jump up onto the wall
to get up twice. Shimmy around to get on a platform.
Get on top of the rock, and wall run up to the rope. Climb up the rope then
jump across to the [bar trigger] that'd close the wall together. Swing back
over to the rope, then get OFF the rope. Get down from the rock step, then
wall run across to next platform. Run up wall and grab rope. Swing over, and
land on platform. Go through the doorway, and kill em if you like (I didn't).
To the right of the doorway, are ledges you can wall run up and grab a hold
onto. Jump up twice, and you should see a [bar]. Swing up on the bars, until
you reach room above with spike trap on floor.
Run up the wall to the ledge, then keep going up until you can see two bars.
Jump onto the [bar], then swing up and jump off wall to get onto the [bar]
above. Then swing up onto the NORTH wall (not toward the entrance from whence
you came) and you should grab onto a ledge. Shimmy around to the left. Pull
up and jump across when the spinning spike column is on the far end.
In the next part, wall run THE RIGHTSIDE wall, when the blade is on the top to
grab rope. Jump across to the other rope then swing across when time is right.
You can stop swinging on the rope and RESWING at anytime to get new timing.
The next set of traps, spinning columns, should be easy.
In the Time Portal room, wall run up to activate the buttons. The order is
randomly generated. Now go into the present, and you'd
have [Eye of the Storm]. This makes everything easier!

Go back from where you came. Avoid the traps, should be easy. Go down, and be
careful not to kill yourself dropping too far.
Push on button, slow time down, go on through and watch a cut scene of the
Dahaka looking for you.
From where you stand, wall run across (on the wall where the portcullis is,
should be behind you) to reach a beam. Jump across to next beam. Shimmy to
the end ,then turn to look at the wall. Should see a rope. Jump across, swing
the rope and you'd be on the [bar]. Swing over to the next bar, then to the
platform. On the platform, walk out onto the little protruding plank, then
jump out onto the [iron beam]. Walk out to the end of the beam, then jump
across to the column to hang on the ledge. Shimmy around the ledge, and jump
across to go down the curtain. At the end of the curtain, jump off to land on
a [beam]. Walk to the end of the beam, and jump off onto a [bar]. Shimmy
around, and you should see a platform that might seem too far away. Swing and
jump onto it anyway. From the platform, jump down again to the final bottom
platform and if you want, kill the enemies.
At the far end of the platform, there should be a crumbling wall. To the right
of the wall, should be a ledge. Get up on the ledge, then you'd need to do
wall-to-wall jumps to go up between the column and the wall. At the very top
on the column, shimmy around the ledge, and you should see a [bar]. Jump off
onto the bar, then jump onto the broken wall and into the hallway.
Make sure you save, then walk down the hallway to start your first of many
Dahaka chases. These are very exciting, and I'm sure you'd come to love them
as much as me.
When you regain control, run straight then turn left. Wall run across the gap.
On the far end of the platform, jump onto the bar on the right, make sure you
jump OFF the bar IMMEDIATELY, don't be swinging around. Swing across all 3
bars.
You'd find yourself in a room. Dahaka is not chasing you anymore, don't worry.
Go on through, and you'd find yourself outside. Jump down onto a platform.
Wall run across toward the pole and jump onto it. Jump across to the next
platform and go through.
In the next room, you might remember it. Don't go down the curtain, instead
run the opposite direction, and jump off to the lower platform below. Then,
wall run across to the ledge. Drop to hanging and shimmy around to the next
room. Soon as you land, the Dahaka will chase you again.
Run. Wall run. And you'd be safe. Go through the Time Portal.

Go back from where you came. Avoid the traps. Very simple. You'd see a cut
scene with a sand wraith. Climb up on the pole and jump across to the ledge on
a column. Jump up and shimmy across onto the platform with a broken box (you
do remember this room, right?) Jump over onto the ledge above the entrance,
shimmy around, and jump across to the next platform. Run around, wall run to
hit the button, and use the curtain to get down.
Go out the door, past the courtyard, past the traps, past the fountain, up the
long stairs into the fortress.
Go past the rotating blade trap, across the chasm, up the ledges, shimmy
across, down the ledges, across the chasm, past the twin rotating blade. We
are now back at the [Central Hall]. Kill the enemies, or skip them. Make your
way across the hall, and to the opposite end with a fountain.
First Trap - Two rotating spike columns, one rotating blade. Just be careful.
Second Trap - Two rotating spike column. Wall run across when they are both
pulling apart.
Third Trap - Rotating blade. Roll under it.
Fourth Trap - Long chasm, 2 rotating spike columns. Observe the one spike
column, it should make its way horizontally. Wall run across the LEFT WALL
when it's going away from you. Jump across the chasm as your wall run session
approaches the end, and you should be hanging off the ledge. Wait until the
spinning spike column is away from you, before pulling up and jumping up to the
ledge above. Wait until the spinning spike column is coming towards you and
passes you before dropping down and shimmy across to the other end. Slow time
if you need it.
Fifth Trap - Bunch of rotating blade. Just be careful and roll under.
Go up on the ladder at the end, and jump across to raise the gate. Run and
roll under to get through. Cut Scene.

Save Title: [The key and the Lock]
Goal: [Gain Access to the Towers (Past)]
Get up on the switch that'd open the gate back where you came from.
Trap 1 - Avoid the rotating blades.
Trap 2 - Get up on the ledge on the left. When the rotating spike column is
going away from you, follow it quick as you can. As it is coming back, pull up
and then keep going. Drop down to the bottom ledge, then shimmy around corner.
Jump across and pull up to reach the topmost ledge. Go around, then jump down
onto the hallway. Keep going.
Trap 3 - Rotating blade and rotating spike columns. Move through them as
before.
Trap 4 - Rotating blade and rotating spike columns. Be careful.
Back at the [Central Hall], jump across and you should activate the lever with
your sword. Turn it twice to change the room where one of the gap is closed
completely. We're going after the [Third Life Upgrade] first.
Run toward the exit (the one without the water fountain), and on the right
side, you should see a little depression. Go down and hang off of the
depression. Jump across and you'd start a wall-to-wall jump that'd slowly
descend you. At the bottom, jump down to the platform below.
Here is a tough part, you are going to wall run toward the direction of the
exit, and BEFORE you reach the end (if you reach it, you'd jump backward,
causing you to die), you need to jump across and start wall-to-wall jump
upward. A cue to start jumping is when the Prince seems to hit a bump on the
wall.
In the next part, you'd be doing the same again. Wall run across, and start
wall-to-wall jump before you reach the end. This will descend you. Go through
the doorway. Don't die, else you'd have to do it ALL OVER.
Trap 1 - [4 rotating spiked column with floor spike] Start running when the
one column going up and down is reaching the bottom.
Trap 2 - [Rotating blade, three rotating spiked columns] This one is very
exciting. As the one spike cclumn is going away from you, roll, and wall run
across. Soon as you cross the one spiked column, just let go of all buttons
and drop down. Hope you don't get hit!
On your way back, there're spiked floor, but you can run through them, no
problem. As you reach back at the [Central Hall], go left, and jump across the
chasm. Then wall-to-wall jump back up to where you were.
We will do the [Water Tower] first. To do the water tower, first turn the
lever so it's pointed at 3 o'clock (if 12 o'clock is pointing at the fountain).
Go to where the fountain is (you might want to save).

Shimmy around, jump up, jump across, jump up, shimmy over, jump across, jump
up, and you'd be at the entrance to the [Water Tower].
Roll under the trap, and when you hit the button, immediately [Slow Time] and
run fast as you can across the timed floor. In the next section, wall run up
and jump onto bar overhead. Swing across and activate the switch. Soon as you
hit the switch, activate [Slow Time] and run across the timed floor again.

As you come into the "hanging garden" the Prince will make a comment. Enemies
will start to attack you, but I ignored them and jumped on the ladder to the
left from the entrance way. You'd have to run up the wall and jump back to get
a hold of the ladder though.
On the top of the ladder, RavenMan awaits you. Ignore him and go up the next
set of ladders. At this platform, go to the end of the wall with the rope.
Wall run, then jump across to the platform. On this platform, wall run toward
the huge statue next to red curtain, jump across at the end to get a hold of
the bar. Swing up and into the next room over.
Jump across to the ledge, and let yourself all the way down. At the very
bottom, go to the other end of the room, and pull yourself all the way to the
top again. You'd come to a fountain.
In the next room, the game will show you the scenery of the place. This is
where you'd find your [Fourth Life Upgrade]! Yay. Pull on the lever to open
the door.
You can fight them all, or ignore them. Soon as you run past the first guard,
and go up into a garden like area with tree, run to your left and into the
corner. You should see an opening on the fence. Drop down there and you'd see
a ledge below you. Drop down there and shimmy around and drop down until you
reach platform. Wall run across.
In the next room, just lower yourself by jumping across from ledge to ledge.
It's not hard. Once you are at the bottom, jump to the [bar] and swing over to
the opposite end of the room. Go to the left side of the room, and go down on
the ledge again until you reach another floor down.
Trap 1 - [Horizontal Blade, Floor Spikes] - Run across, and roll when you know
the blades are coming.
Trap 2 - [Horizontal rotating spike column, rotating blade, and floor spike] -
Run across when the spike column is coming, roll under. Then roll under the
blade.
Trap 3 - [Spike columns, floor spikes, horizontal blade] - Run past the spike
columns, and then roll under the horizontal blades.
Trap 4 - [Rotating blade, floor spikes, rotating spike column] - Roll past the
blade, and roll under the column as it comes toward you.
Congratulations on the [Fourth Life Upgrade]. Go back the way you came. Jump
up on ledge, jump up, jump up, jump across, shimmy, jump up, etc, jump on [bar]
swing across, jump up, shimmy, jump up, etc.
When you are outside again, wall run back across, wall run up onto the ledge.
Pull up, jump up, shimmy around, pull up, pull up. You'd be facing enemies
again.
I didn't bother killing them still. They take too long. Anyway, in one of the
column in the middle of the garden area, there is a switch that you need to
wall-run and hang to. As it lowers, a small rock platform will rise up to your
left (you are facing the wall as you are hanging on the switch). [Slow Time]
and run up the platform, then wall-run up to the ledge.
Jump across to beam. Walk on the beam, and then jump across to another beam.
Walk on the beam until you reach the ledge of the column, and shimmy around.
Jump across to a bar. Swing over to the next column, and shimmy around. Walk
on the beam until you get to the column, then to the protruding plank. Get on
the plank, and jump over to bar. Swing up on bar to a tree branch. Walk on
branch until the end then jump toward the wall onto a waiting rope.
As you swing on the rope, you'd going out toward the sun and outside, not
toward the corner of the building. You should see the bar at the end, that's
your target. On the bar, swing up and across to ledge. Shimmy around, and
jump onto plank/beam of platform. Get on platform and fight the RavenMan.
Now, the column at the corner have ledges. Get on them, and jump up. Shimmy
around, and get on to the top of the platform. From the platform, look around,
and you should see RavenMan waiting for you across the platform. Jump across
to the platform, and kill him. Wall run and then jump back to the hanging
switch. It'd lower the bridge.
Go back and cross the bridge. Grab the box and push it onto the switch. Jump
down and run across the pull on the lever. Now we have the water flowing to
the hanging garden.
Jump down onto the water channel, drink water for health if you need it. Jump
up on the ledge and shimmy around. Drop down on the platform, and cross the
beam. In the middle of the beam is a protruding plank. Go on it and jump
across to the rope. Drop down on the rope, and turn the lever. Go through and
you'd find a fountain waiting for you.

Drop down, go across room, climb up. When you exit, drop down and shimmy
around. Drop down and get to the bottom with the curtain, it's much faster.
Now, it's time to activate the water system.
There are a total of four levers. From the entrance coming from the Central
Hall, I will label the levers as Far Right, Far Left, Right, and Left. So,
when you drop down from the curtain, the first lever that you see would be "Far
Right."
First, turn the "Right" lever twice (180 degrees) so the water will go across
to the "Far Right" lever. Then, twist the "Far Right" lever twice, and you'd
see a cut scene. Turn the "Left" lever twice so the water will go across to
the "Far Left" lever. Then twist the "Far Left" lever once, and you'd see
another cut scene. The central door will open now.
Go through the central door (it's the door in the middle of the three prongs,
directly across from the exit to [Central Hall]). Down the hallway, you'd see
ledges on your right. Jump up, and shimmy across. Jump up, jump across, jump
up, jump up, jump up, jump across and you'd be at a Time Portal. Activation
sequence is randomly generated. Now, this is where the Water Garden becomes
exciting. Oh, you get the [Breath of Fate] here, but I never use it, [Eye of

Exit the Time Portal room, and follow the road. Drop down but be careful
looking for the ledges. Shimmy across and down until you reach the walkway.
As you exit back out to the center statue surrounded by four levers, there
should be a rock platform to your left right before you reach the statue. Get
on the rock, wall run up, and jump across to the wooden ledge. Jump across the
beam toward the statue. Jump across again, even though the next beam is very
well camouflaged.
You'd now go around a circular beam covered with vegetations. When you reach
the end, jump across onto the platform. On the platform, you should see on the
left what seems like ledges. Shimmy across, and jump up until you reach the
top, and shimmy around the corner. There'd be a bunch of enemy here that'd
want to fight, you can if you want.
When ready, get to the wall, and wall run across, there'd be a "tree branch"
waiting to catch you at the end. Walk toward the end of the tree branch and
jump toward the wall that has nasty bricks and vegetations. Shimmy to the
right, and drop down to the tree branch below you. Walk to the end of the tree
branch, then drop down onto the support beam. March forward, and jump up on
the ledges. On the ledge, you'd see a tree branch up above you, jump up on it,
and walk across to the next room over.
In this room, you'd jump across to the ledge, and shimmy around the second
ledge. Drop down until the very last ledge, then leap across onto the tree
branch. Walk around the tree branch until you reach the end, then jump across
onto the ledge formed on the tree. Shimmy around the tree trunk, then drop off
onto the branch. Walk around on the branch until the end, then jump across
toward the ledges on the wall. Jump up and shimmy across until you reach the

Soon as you move into the next room, you'd be shown with the insanity that
you'd have to navigate through. Ninja will drop from top and you'd have to
fight. Or you can just skip them, and drop down from the ledge directly in
front of you. Drop down to the second level and shimmy to the right. Drop
down next to where the tiny water fall is landing. Go into hanging mode and
shimmy around the corner then jump to the opposite side.
Climb up and on the platform, go around to the northwest side and run up the
wall and climb up two ledges until you are hanging from the top then shimmy
around the corners again. When you can, climb up twice and you'd be looking at
what seems to be a broken bridge that leads to nowhere. You'd need to wall-run
from the broken bridge and jump across to the far end. Hanging off the ledge
now, shimmy toward the wall and get up on the platform.
Explore the platform if you like, or just jump up on the ledge that's right
next to you on the left. Jump up twice and you'd be standing on ledge with a
pole to the opposite of you. Jump off the pole onto a tree branch [beam] then
jump to your right to another branch [bar]. Swing off and you'd be hanging off
a broken wall. Get up on top of the wall and walk toward where the dock is
(it's where the camera is facing anyway). Jump off and hang off the ledge
directly in front of you. Shimmy around until you can land on a small platform
below you with a plank sticking out.
Walk out onto the plank and jump across onto a swinging [bar]. Swing up onto
the next platform. On this platform, look left and you'd see a bar. Jump
forward onto the [bar] and swing off to the platform with waiting enemies. The
pole is really useful for dispatching the enemies, just swing on it a few times
and they'd all die. Keep going forward to the wall and face out toward the
sea. You should see a shiny tree [pole] and some far off building. You'd be
wall running on the RIGHT WALL, but do not jump, just keep running and
eventually you'd be hanging off a ledge. Climb up and you'd be at the

swing over to the next platform with the RavenMan waiting.
It's time for another Dahaka run! Exciting!
The Dahaka will smash you into another platform. From the platform, wall run

across to waiting [bar]. Jump off the [bar] immediately onto another [bar]
then onto a [platform]. Run toward the wall on the platform, then turn right
to keep running. Now, wall run on the LEFT WALL and you'd see the Dahaka
jumping across to follow you.
In the corridor, wall run on the LEFT WALL. Then at the corner, wall run on
the LEFT WALL again. You'd now drop a bit of a distance, and land on a
platform. Get out of the doorway and you'd be outside.
Wall run on the LEFT WALL, onto a [ladder] and go down the [ladder]. On the
this platform, wall run on the RIGHT WALL until you fall off onto a platform.
Run into the doorway, and the music will change. Smash the barrel in your way,
and run quick as you can.
Wall run up onto the ledge and pull yourself up quick as you can. Now turn the
corner, and wall run on the LEFT WALL. You'd be hanging off ledge. Shimmy to
the right and get up onto the platform. Run forward, break barrel, and keep
running. You'd turn corner toward the left, then turn toward the right out
into an outside area again. Turn left in the outside area, and you'd be facing
a wall with slashes. Run toward that wall and turn left. Wall run on the
RIGHT WALL. You'd catch onto a rope. Keep running off the rope and onto a
platform.
The Dahaka will show up now behind you all pissed off. Keep running forward
and you'd see a ladder in front of you. Jump onto the ladder, and climb down.
You can just drop off from this ladder at the bottom. Run forward through some

across to the [plank] of the [block]. Now walk on the [long extension plank]
and jump onto the next platform.
Once landed, walk forward, then turn left and run across the platform. At the
end, you'd see a plank on your left. Walk on the plank, and jump across to
[block]. On the [block] turn right and jump across to another [lever].
The lever is at 6 o'clock position initially, turn it until it's at the 12
o'clock position with both block's long extension pointing at 12 o'clock
position. Walk toward 12 o'clock, and wall run on your RIGHT WALL onto a
[rope] Keep going and run off the rope onto a corner area with ledge. Jump up
on the ledge and shimmy around the corner to the end. Jump off the ledge onto
the [pole]. Turn right and jump off the pole onto the [block]. Walk on the
long [plank] and jump onto the platform to 12 o'clock. Jump down into the
small depression and roll under the gate.
Turn the [lever] and water will start flowing out. Drink the water if you need
it and go on the platform on the north, we're going after the [Fifth Life
Upgrade] from here.
Jump up from the platform onto ledge above, and jump up again to see door way
with railing. Go in.
Trap 1 - [Spiked floor, rotating spike column] - Time your run. Start running
when spiked column is coming down. Roll if you need to.
Trap 2 - [Spiked floor, 3 rotating spike columns] - Again, time your run.
Start running when the first column is half way going up. Easy enough.
Retrace your steps after getting [Fifth Life Upgrade] and back to the [lever].
Roll under the gate, and then back out into the open area.
Jump across to the block where you came from. Onto the [pole] and back on the
[ledge]. Shimmy around the corner, and drop down. Wall run on the LEFT WALL
(Prince perspective) and onto the [rope]. Run off the [rope] and onto the
[lever] platform. Turn the [lever] until it's back to the 6 o'clock position.
If you notice, the water from the block will now cascade into a sewer system.
Jump off the lever platform via the [plank] to the [block] then jump from the
[long plank] onto the sky bridge. Turn right and run to the end and then jump
back on the [block]. Turn left and jump from the [plank] onto the [lever]
platform. Make sure the [lever] is at 6 o'clock position. Wall run on the
LEFT WALL, grab onto the [rope] and run off to the corner. Jump up onto the
[ledge] on the wall and shimmy around until the end. Jump off onto the [pole].
Turn left, and shimmy down a bit to jump off onto [block]. Climb down the
block easy. Now, go to the central [lever] and turn it to 3 o'clock position.
You'd now see a cut scene when all the levers are in the correct position.
Exit the room from where you first came in, [gate] at around 2 o'clock position
of the room.
Jump down to use the fountain.

Climb back up the platform so you can wall-run on the LEFT WALL into the
corner. Wall-run on the LEFT WALL again, pass the blades. Go outside, and
you'd be attacked by 2 invisible ninja girls, and 2 guards. Throwing them off
is the best way to go. When you are ready, wall-run on the LEFT WALL past the
blades.
On the platform, go down the [ladder]. Wall run on the RIGHT WALL (Prince
perspective). You'd drop down and hang on the ledge. Get up on the platform,
and get into the corridor. Climb up the [ladder] jump across to activate
[switch]. Run through the [gate] and go through some twist and turns to get
back on the balcony with 2 enemies. Leap over railing and hang off then jump
over to the [bar]. Jump again to another [bar] and again to the platform. Cut
scene will show what you need to do.
Turn left and run to the end of the platform. Turn left and you'd see a wall
with [rope]. Wall-run on the LEFT WALL, grab onto the [rope] then run off the
rope. Run up the wall to activate the button. Go back to where you came by
wall-run on the RIGHT WALL (Prince Perspective) back onto the [rope] then run
off the [rope] onto the platform. Now climb on the protruding block, and then
wall-run up then jump before reaching apex to grab onto a [bar]. Shimmy on the
[bar] toward the north where a ledge is. Swing off the [bar] onto the [ledge].
Shimmy on the ledge around the corner, and then climb down from the ledge.
Wall-run up the wall and jump off the wall to get on the [hanging switch]. Get
off the switch (not sure if the switch did anything, but better safe than
sorry), then wall run up to climb up on the ledge to the right. Shimmy around
the corner then Jump across to the opposite ledge. Shimmy around the corners,
and climb down.
Go into the hole with the [ladder] and climb down. On the platform, go left
and jump across to climb down the [ladder] to where the RavenMan is. You'd
find another set of [ladder] going down. Climb down, then go through the
corridor on the left of the [ladder] back toward [Central Hall]. There is a
Fountain to the right, save if you like.
Jump down, run to the end, jump up on the ledge, jump up on platform. Jump
down on the next section, run to the end, jump up on the ledge, jump up on the
platform with a button. Avoid the 2x rotating blades, dispatch the enemies,
and go back out into the [Central Hall]. Cut scene and new weapon [Lion
Sword]!
Go to the lever, and turn it until it's facing the 9 o'clock position (with the

From the fountain, look on the other side of the entrance and you should see a
weapon's rack. Destroy that. [Wall run] on the RIGHT WALL from there, and
jump across to reach the platform. On the platform, wall run on the RIGHT WALL
and you'd find yourself hanging on a ledge at the end. Jump up, shimmy, jump
up, jump up. Now, jump across the chasm to reach platform. Wall run up, and
get up on the top of the platform. Look to your left, jump across, and voila!
Jump on the switch, [Slow Time] and run through the [gate]. At the next
hallway, jump across the chasm then run to the end and do wall-to-wall jumps.
At the top, pass the trap blades and go up the [ladder].
At the top of the ladder, shimmy off the ladder and around the ledge until you
are opposite of the platform. Jump across. Avoid the thrusting bars and reach
the fountain.

Goal: [Activate the Second Tower (Past)]
Head downstairs and get past the guards heading straight against the wall to
your right. Keep going out and you'd be hugging the ledge on the right wall.
Shimmy out then climb down to the ledge below. Hang from the ledge, then
shimmy to the left then drop down twice until you can hang and shimmy to the
right toward a platform landing area.
Test out your new weapon on all the guards here. It's unfortunate, but you
have to kill like 10 of them until a [Iron Giant] comes running out. Avoid his
initial smash by rolling to the side, then roll in between his legs and hack at
his calf. He'd fall down soon. Climb onto his back by jumping onto him, and
smack his head with [Slow Time] on. He'd die quick. Go through the gate that
the [Iron Giant] came out of.
In the room, turn left and you should see button on wall next to some
waterfalls. Activate the button by wall-run up. A [block] will come out of
the wall to your right. Run up the [block] then run up the wall to hang on a
wooden ledge. Climb up on the ledge then jump to climb up on the platform
where a [fountain] awaits.

Segment 3 - Mechanical Tower - Past (File 06/21)

Goal: [Activate the Second Tower (Past)]
Facing the [fountain] turn to behind you, and you'd see a crazy gear spinning
like mad. Don't worry, you won't die from it (I haven't anyway), just jump
through when you can, [Slow Time] if you need it, and you'd see a cut scene.
Kill the enemies then pretend you just came from the [fountain]. Straight
ahead, you should see some [poles] that goes up and down. Jump on the closest
one, then jump over to the next [pole] on the right, jump again to the right
[pole] then you'd jump again to the right [pole]!
You should now be looking at a top view of the prince with the [pole] going up
and down on your left and a [beam] to your top right. Jump on the [beam], then
jump right onto the platform with the [button]. Wall-run up to activate the
button, then wall-run on the RIGHT WALL toward the [beam/sign] that moved away
from you as soon as you activate the [button]. You should hang on the ledge of
the [beam/sign] now. Shimmy around the [sign] until you are at the other side.
Get up on the ledge of the [sign] and jump onto the [bar]. Swing off the [bar]
onto a corner platform with a [lever].
Turning the [lever] will turn the [bar]. You can only turn it once, so no
mistake here. Jump back on the [bar] and wait until the moving [bar] comes
down to where you'd be able to swing onto. Swing onto the moving [bar] and
wait till it's all the way to the top before swinging off to the platform
above.
You'd be facing three exploding dogs. I recommend slashing them three times
and jump backward immediately to avoid the explosion. Or even slashing twice
then avoid them while they blow themselves up. When done, jump up on the
[hanging switch] that'd elevate a platform.
Run forward and jump onto the new [platform]. Three more exploding dogs will
attacking you. After dispatching them, turn left to see a circular looking
room and a [beam] that you can jump off of toward the circular room. Get on
the [beam] and jump to a [plank] sticking out of the room towards you. Walk
toward the room, then shimmy around to the right and jump up on the ledge.
Then climb on ledge, and jump up again. Shimmy back toward the left around the
corners until you reach the end. Fall down to catch onto the platform below
you and climb up to kill the one enemy guarding the room.
There is a [ladder] in the opposite end of the room, climb up on it and go all
the way to the top. Shimmy off the [ladder] and onto the wall surrounding the
room and then climb on top to walk to the other end. You won't be using the
[plank] extension yet, so ignore it and walk to the VERY end. Here, you'd jump
to the [ledge] on the wall, next to a curtain looking thing with pole sticking
out of it. Shimmy to the left, climb down to shimmy under the curtain, and
climb up to jump to the [bar]. From the bar, shimmy to the right and around
the corner until you are facing the rotating wall. Jump onto the rotating wall
and you'd land on the [ledge]. Jump off onto the platform with the [lever].
Turn the [lever] until some kind of big [corkscrew] is turning. You want it to
be turning clockwise! When ready, from the platform, jump to the [bar]. When
the [corkscrew] looks ready, jump onto it, and you'd be hanging off a ledge
from the spinning [corkscrew]. You'd turn with the [corkscrew] and when
presented with the opportunity to jump onto the next [bar], do it immediately!
Jump off of the [bar] onto the platform with [button]. Pushing the button will
rotate a big wooden [flap] to your side. However, an evil exploding dog is
waiting on the wall.
When you are ready in your heart, activate the [button]. Wall-run on the RIGHT
WALL (Prince perspective), slash the dog in mid-run, jump off the wall, and
hang off the [flap] (it sounds harder than it is ^_^). Now, climb up on the
[flap] and jump off to the ledge against the wall and shimmy to the left and
down onto the platform.
Two exploding dogs will be waiting, dispatch them and go into the room to your
right. Wall-run up the wall then jump off to activate the [hanging switch]. A
platform will raise up. Get down and run out of the room, onto the catwalk
then the platform next to the huge spinning evil gear. Jump up on the [beam]
to your right, and walk out onto the [plank]. Jump across the spinning gear
when ready. You'd land on a [plank]. Now jump to the right (prince
perspective) onto the next [plank]. Jump up on the ledge, and climb up.
Shimmy to the left and jump up + climb up. Shimmy to the left and enter room
with rotating blade.
Roll under the blade or run past it, but be careful, a smashing bar is very
close to the left of the rotating blade. When the smashing bar is fully
extended, jump up on top of the bar, and wall-run on RIGHT WALL, past the twin
spinning spike columns. Get past the next bar and you'd be faced with two
spinning spiked columns again. Get past them, and run down the steps past two
more spinning spike columns. Jump up on the ledge to your left, and jump up
against to shimmy around the corner to activate the [button]. Drop down and
run through the [gate]. Go down the steps and you'd meet up with a [fountain].

Go down another set of steps, and you'd meet up with some tougher enemies. I
recommend tossing them off to the abyss. When ready, activate the [button] to
the left of the entrance way by wall-run up. You'd see a cut scene, and fail
to get on the [block] that came out. Activate [Slow Time] then activate the
[button] again. Jump up on the [block] and then wall-run up to the [rope]
above. Wall-run off the [rope] and get on to the catwalk above. Here, you'd
meet two more enemies, toss them off and keep going straight then to the right.
You'd see a cut scene.
Run to the end of the catwalk and you'd see a huge spinning gear with axels
that you'd have to pass through while wall-running. Wall-run on the LEFT WALL
and avoid the axel by going just as it leaves enough room for you. Land on the
platform, and toss more enemies off into the abyss. Now, you're facing a
faster spinning gear. [Slow Time] if you need it, and wall-run on the LEFT
WALL. Jump off at the end of the run to a [pole]. Jump across to the next
[pole] on the left, then jump to [pole] on the right, then jump to [pole] on
right again. Jump forward into platform with [lever] lit with fire.
Turn the [lever] to activate the elevator [platform]. Jump onto the [platform]
and look back toward the [lever] platform. At the apex of the elevator
[platform] wall-run on RIGHT WALL, and jump off before reaching the end to do
wall-to-wall jumps up to the top. You should now be in a big room with a
fireplace. Go in and [Iron Giant] will come and challenge you.
Don't bother going down the path to the left (the path with artwork chest), but
rather turn to the right past a [gate] with exploding dog waiting for you on
the wall. Wall-run on LEFT WALL, slash the dog, and grab onto the [rope].
Forgot to mention this earlier, but if you have problems with slashing the dog
(you'd have to master this later though), you can pick up a secondary weapon,
and throw it at the dog. Wall-run off the rope then jump across to the
platform with pool of water. Drink up if you need it. When ready, look at the
spinning contraption and notice that there are alternating holes on the bottom
of each gate. You'd need to roll through each of the gate and get onto the
first walkway to the right that you see. There should be a [hanging switch]
that'd open the [gate]. Get back into the waterway with the spinning gates,
and keep going forward, rolling under the gates until you reach the next
platform with pooled water.
Jump up on the [bar] and swing to the next [bar], then swing onto the platform.
Toss off the few enemies, and go through the gate.
Trap 1 - [Spinning spike column, spiked floor] Run through.
Trap 2 - [spiked floor] easy enough.
Trap 3 - [Chasm with wall blades] Wall-run on the RIGHT WALL onto [rope]. When
time is right, wall-run off the rope and onto the platform.
Trap 4 - [Spinning spike column, smashing bar] Avoid the column and run through
the smashing bar.
Trap 5 - [2x Smashing bar, 2x spinning spike column] Jump up on the column when
it's extended, and wall-run on LEFT WALL past the spike column. Avoid the last
spinning column and the smashing bar.
Trap 6 - [2x spinning spike column] Wall-run on LEFT WALL when the opportunity
presents itself.
Activate the [Time Portal], randomly generated sequence of buttons and you get
another worthless skill, [Ravages of Time].

Get out of the [Time Portal] and you'd see the traps are still active.
Trap 1 - [2x spinning spike column] Wall-run on RIGHT WALL when opportunity
comes.
Trap 2 - [2x Smashing bar, 2x spike column] Jump up on the smashing bar just as
it fully extends itself. Wall-run on LEFT WALL immediately, at end of the run,
jump across to land on top of the smashing bar to avoid being smashed.
Trap 3 - [2x spike column, smashing bar] Walk past them.
Trap 4 - [Chasm, wall blade] Wall-run on LEFT WALL when opportunity comes.
Grab onto the [rope] then stop running back and forth on the rope. Jump off
the rope to the ledge on your right. Shimmy across, and climb down to shimmy
the rest of the way on to the platform.
Trap 5 - [Spiked floor, spiked column, spiked floor] - Just run past, easy
enough.
You'd come back out into a big room with 2 guards waiting. Cut scene ensues,
and after, you'd be dispatching them, and 3 exploding dogs to follow. After
you're ready, climb into hanging position and fall off to grab onto the
curtain. Don't be jumping off, just fall.
You'd now wall-run on the LEFT WALL past the spinning axel, and jump across to
[pole]. Jump onto the next few [poles] until you reach the end with the
platform. Jump onto the elevator [platform]. Wall-run on the RIGHT WALL, and
before reaching the end, jump across to do wall-to-wall jump up until you reach
the big room with bunch of enemies waiting. Kill them all. Soon as you are
done, exploding dogs will come until you learn to kill one that'd end up
exploding into the corner. I find it easy to [Slow Time] then aim them like a
soccer ball toward where I want them to go. Run out through the door that blew
up, and wall-run on LEFT WALL onto [rope] then run-off [rope] into platform
with pooled water.
Run ahead and go through the gate by rolling under. Jump over chasm then roll
under gate. The camera angle shows you where you need to go. Jump across the
broken bridge, dispatch the guard. Climb down the platform on the right side,
and drop down onto ledges until you reach the bottom platform. Dispatch guard
again.
Jump across the [broken bridge] and kill another guard. Turn to your left, and
jump across the waterfall to the platform waiting beyond. Go through the
doorway shown in the cut scene earlier.
Move through the corridor, avoiding a few simple traps until you get to a
[button]. Go through the [gate] after activating the [button] and dispatch all
guards and exploding dog within.
Climb up on the [ladder] till you reach very top, and you'd see an opening on
the spinning contraption that you can jump onto from the [ladder]. Once on top
of the rotating platform, wall-run up the left wall onto a ledge and climb up,
then jump-up + climb up. You should see a ledge being rotated around the axel,
jump on the [ledge].
Once the [ledge] rotates you around to the other side, jump off onto the ledge
on the wall and raise yourself to the top level. Now jump back across to the
spinning ledge. Jump up, and shimmy around until you can climb up and stand on
top of the ledge. Jump up again to reach the ledge above, and shimmy around
until you can get up on the platform.
Wall-run up the ledge on the right (water cascade down) and get up on that
ledge. Jump across to the ledge on the spinning axel. Jump across to the left
wall ledge and climb up to the top-most level. As you are hanging off the
ledge under the button, jump across to the ledges on the spinning axel, notice
that ONE ledge is missing from the 4 side -- so be careful. As you stand on
top of the ledge, get ready to jump across to hit the [button], and jump right
back to the ledge. The [gate] will now open. [Slow Time] if you can get it
very well. Fountain awaits you on the other side.

Get up the step and into the next room. Dispatch the guards, and then
exploding dogs will come. Use the dogs to blow open the [cracked wall] to the
right. Jump out of the room and onto a broken platform and cut scene starts.
"Right place, but the wrong time!"
Turn left and jump up on the rock steps and move forward until you are between
two close walls. Do wall-to-wall jumps up until the platform above. Here,
you'd be attacked by a few guard and ninja girl. From where you jumped up, on
the right is a railing. Wall-run up the railing and stand on top of the
platform. Jump back across to the [block] that was in the center of the room,
then jump across to the ledges on the wall. Climb up to the top and you'd be
at a corner platform.
Wall-run on the RIGHT WALL and get to the next corner platform. Wall-run on
the RIGHT WALL again, to get to the [ladder]. Climb up and you'd find yourself
in a room. Kill what guards are here, and go up the small steps. On the right
are piles of rock, on left is a railing. Leap over the railing and drop down
one level to the next ledge (cut in the wall). Shimmy around the corner, and
jump across to the wooden platform attached to stone platform.
Ninja girls will pop out, but you can ignore them and find the [ladder] leading
down on the right of where you landed. The ladder is attached on the side of
the platform, so you can't see it unless you are hanging off the side of the
platform. Go down the [ladder] and you'd see a wooden [beam] and a pendulum
swinging back and forth. When time is right, jump across onto the [beam], then
across onto the platform.
In the room, wall-run on the RIGHT wall past the wall blades. It's best to run
when the first blade is going down. You'd catch onto [rope], run off the
[rope] then near the end of the run, jump across onto platform's ledge. Raise
yourself up and you'd find yourself in a corner again.
Wall-run on the RIGHT WALL (Prince perspective) and you'd be hanging off ledge.
Get down on ledge until you're standing on rock platform with [ladder]
attached. Go down the [ladder] and on the next platform, throw everyone off
into the abyss. When you are ready, wall-run up the railing on the left and
climb up onto the platform.
Wall-run up the wall to grab a hold of the ledge, then shimmy around the
corner. Jump across to the ledge, and drop down to the ledge below. Shimmy
around and drop down onto the platform. Run forward and turn right into the
entrance way, and you'd start the Dahaka chase.
Wall-run on LEFT WALL. Run forward then turn left. Wall-run on the RIGHT
WALL, grab onto [rope] and run off [rope]. Turn and you should see curtain of
water, run through and you'd be safe.
Wall-run up to activate button, then do wall-to-wall jump up to the platform
above. Dispatch the enemies here. Run forward, jump across and crazy Dahaka
chase begins again.
Camera perspective changes, run down, turn left. Wall-run on LEFT WALL, grab
onto [rope] run off [rope]. Camera perspective change, run down, turn right.
Wall-run on RIGHT WALL, run forward and go into [Time Portal] room.

the hole. Then roll under the next blade.
Trap 3 - [Chasm, Wall blades] I would again, recommend wall-run on RIGHT WALL
when the first blade is going down. Second blade will be somewhat hard, as
it's hard to time the swing with the blade. I recommend [Slow Time].
Kill the exploding dog, and roll under the huge cog in the way. Jump across
the chasm, and toss the guards into the abyss. Run around the corner, then
hang off the platform. Jump across, then do wall-to-wall jump to lower
yourself to the bottom.
Kill more guards and dog, then wall-run on LEFT WALL catching the [rope] then
run off [rope] onto the platform. You can use the [button] here to activate
the spike traps that'd kill the guard. Neato!
Wall-run on the LEFT WALL toward the clockwork contraptions. Once you reach
the huge room, Bomb Giant will be tossing exploding dogs at you. Run to the
left first, tossing guard off into the abyss on the way. To your left, you
should see a cracked wall. To the front of you, you should see water spouts.
Stand near the cracked wall for a bit, until Bomb Giant toss a dog at you to
blow open the door. This leads to the [Sixth Life Upgrade]! But first, let's

[ladder] to go all the way down, then drop down. Wall-run on LEFT WALL across
to the other platform, then climb into hanging and shimmy around the corner.
Drop down onto a small ledge, then drop down again. Run toward the Bomb Giant,
and cut scene should begin. Just kill him like the previous two Iron Giants.
He only turns a bit more.
Proceed toward the clock mechanism that the Bomb Giant was guarding. Head to
the right side. Wall-run up then jump back to reach a [bar]. Swing up to
[beam]. Stand on beam then jump to [bar] on left. Swing to wall, jump back to
reach higher [bar]. Swing up onto [beam]. Jump across to [ladder]. Climb all
the way up.
Go to the wall left of the [gate]. Wall-run up and jump back to reach the
[hanging switch]. This will extend a walkway allowing you to turn the [lever]
in the center. Kill the exploding doggies that appear, and turn the [lever]
360 degree. Now, it's time to get back to the [Central Hall].

Goal: [Return to the Hourglass Chamber (Past)]
Run back across the walkway, go through the [gate]. Wall-run on LEFT WALL past
the spokes of the wheel. This might be a tad bit difficult. Start running
when the spoke is just disappearing.
Now, wall-run on RIGHT WALL past the spoke of another wheel. You'd have to
jump across at the end of the wall-run. Start running when you have just
enough room to get by.
Go down the steps, and doggies will ambush. Kill them, then hang off the ledge
at the end to see red curtain. Drop down and grab hold of the curtain to slide
down. As you approach the end of the curtain, jump across to reach another
curtain. Jump again for the third curtain, and go all the way down.
Go down the steps again, and you'd see more curtains as you hang off of this
ledge. Do the same thing as above.
Run out, and you'd see the huge spinning cog wheel from before. Jump across to
the platform, and go down the ladder. Go on the plank, and jump across through
the spinning wheel, to the other side where [fountain].
Hang down the platform on the right, then drop down to ledge below and drop
again to the ground. Run to the left and back outside to see Iron Giant
running for you again. Kill him or ignore him.
Now, keep running forward and toward the left. To the left of the closed
[gate] is a small alleyway (it's where you first came in from). Wall-run up
and you should reach a ledge at the end of the alleyway. Shimmy to the left
and climb up all the way until you need to shimmy to the right. Climb up all
the way, then shimmy to the right again.
Get up on the platform. Run forward and you'd see [fountain] to your right.
Keep going past the two smashing bars. Jump across the chasm to reach the
ledge. Shimmy around to the [ladder]. Jump off at the last few feet to avoid
the spinning blades. Wall-run on RIGHT WALL to catch the curtain and go all
the way down. Wall-run up to hang on the [switch] to open the [gate]. [Slow
Time] then jump across the chasm and through the gate. Avoid the two rotating
blades.
Jump across the chasm to the platform across. Jump down to the left, then jump
down again and finally onto the big platform to see a cut scene.
Go to the [Fountain] and save.

Save Title: [The Empress]
Goal: [Return to the Hourglass Chamber (Past)]
Run up the steps now, and past a few traps.
Trap 1 - [2x Spinning Spike Column, 1x rotating blade] Roll under them,
shouldn't be hard.
Trap 2 - [Chasm, 2x spinning spike column] Wall-run on left or right wall when
appropriate.
Trap 3 - [rotating blade] simple
Trap 4 - [Huge Chasm, 2x spinning spike column] Notice that the bottom of the
far off spinning spike column is coming and going. When it's going away from
you, wall-run on LEFT WALL, jump across to reach the ledge. Now climb down to
hanging and shimmy to the left. Wait till the spike column passes you to climb
up twice. Now, wait for it to go away, then come back to climb down and shimmy
under the stationary spike column. Keep going to keep ahead of the moving one.
Trap 5 - [3x Rotating blade] simple.
Get up on the ladder, jump across to activate the [switch] and open the [gate].
Roll under the gate, run toward the hourglass and cut scene.
Move forward after cut scene and you'd get another cut scene in big room. It's
time to fight the boss! Very easy in my opinion.
[Boss Tip - Fight XXXX]
- Block. Then do combo breaker!
- Jump over the XXXX and slash.
- That's about it. Slow down time if you want to hurt XXXX fast.

Goal: [Leave the Island (Present)]
It's time to play cat & mouse with the Dahaka. Go up the steps head of you and
the Dahaka will appear behind you. Run to the left. Wall-run on the RIGHT
WALL, then jump across onto platform. Destroy the barrels blocking your way
then at the end of platform, wall-run on LEFT WALL (prince perspective) to grab
onto [bar]. Swing up the [bar], up the [bar], up to the [platform] then turn
left and wall-run on RIGHT WALL grabbing onto [rope]. Run off [rope] and jump
across to platform. Run forward and slash the barrel then wall run on RIGHT
WALL, jump across at the end to platform. Run to the left with weird tilted
camera, jump onto the [hanging switch] then swing off to the platform and you'd
be safe!
Jump across to the right side of the screen and pull on the tombstone looking
thing.
Time for Dahaka #2. You don't get to save, so don't die! Go up the steps
again, this time your path will fork to the right. Wall-run on the LEFT WALL
(prince perspective) and the Dahaka will start chasing. Run forward and then
wall-run on the LEFT WALL then jump across to [bar]. Swing to next [bar] then
to [platform]. Run forward, jump across chasm, turn right, run forward then
jump on the [hanging switch]. Swing off to safety.
On this platform, look to the left of where Prince stands, and you'd see column
with ledge on it. Wall-run up on it and shimmy to the left then climb up
thrice to drop down on ledge with another tombstone. Pull it out.
Time for Dahaka #3! Are we having fun yet? Go back up on the steps. Turn
right, and wall-run on the LEFT WALL (prince perspective). Dahaka will start
chasing you again. Run forward, and then wall-run on LEFT WALL then jump
across to [bar]. Swing to next [bar] then to [platform]. Run forward, jump
across chasm and go left this time. Roll through the rat hole on the ground,
then wall-run on the RIGHT WALL onto [rope]. Run off the [rope] and grab onto
[bar]. Swing off the [bar] onto platform, now turn left (prince perspective)
and run to between two close wall. Start the wall-to-wall jumps to the top of
the platform. Run forward and roll under the rat hole again to start another
wall-to-wall jumps up to the top. Now, run forward then wall-run on the RIGHT
WALL, grab onto [rope] run off to another [rope] run off to [bar], swing off to
[bar], swing off to [platform]. Run forward, jump across chasm, wall-run on
LEFT WALL then jump across to go down the curtain. Run down the steps, turn
right and run forward! Climb over the rubbles, and wall-run on LEFT WALL to
jump across to the opposite platform. Run forward and turn left. Roll under
rat hole, then jump to [hanging switch] to activate water curtain. Swing to
safety.
Phew, that's the tough one. I used two sand tanks because I had to keep
pausing and it killed the rhythm. Anyway, jump up on the left column ridge,
shimmy around the corner and climb up to ledge. Pull out the tombstone.
That's the last of the Dahaka run you have to do.
Now, go crack open the art box, then go to the middle with the sarcophagus and
start scaling it with the ledges. Jump up, climb up, jump up, shimmy around to
the right, climb up, jump, climb up, shimmy right, jump, climb up, jump, climb
up. Run forward and jump onto [bar], swing into the water curtain. Oo, the
Dahaka is pissed. You're rewarded with water [fountain].
A possible glitch might happen here, where there is an invisible wall that
prevents you from getting to the top of the sarcophagus.
"We figured out that there is a glitch in the game at that point. We had to
start the chase with Dahaka all from scratch again. So we did all four of the
chases again. Just let people know that they have to re-do it all again if they
can't get up on the sarcophagus. The glitch causes an invisible forcefield on
top of the sarcophagus." <<- Anastasia>>

your objective will change. Wall-run on RIGHT WALL and grab onto the ledge.
Shimmy over to the left and toss the enemies into the abyss. Wall-run on LEFT
WALL, and you'd land on another ledge. Toss more enemies off the platform then
turn left.
Grab a hold of the ledge on the right side and shimmy left until you're on a
[beam]. Climb up and jump forward to another [beam]. Shimmy to the right,
then jump to next [beam]. Walk off onto the platform to see bunch of guards.
Skipping them is a good idea, or toss them off (you'd get hit though). Wall-
run up on the left wall to climb up on a [ladder] then jump across to another
[ladder]. Climb up, then jump back across to [ledge]. Shimmy around to the

From the [fountain] turn around and run straight through the corridor, ignore

Walk straight out then turn left. Ninja woman will try to slash you, hop up
and send her down. Walk straight, turn right. Ninja woman. Walk straight and
you'd reach platform. Turn right, walk on [plank]. At the end, piece will
fall off. Jump across to [plank]. Walk straight onto the platform. Ninja
woman will appear. Here, you'd have to wall-run on RIGHT WALL and slash the
ninja woman at the exact time to get through. On the corner platform, wall-run
on RIGHT WALL (Prince Perspective) to reach next platform. Jump to the
[curtain] then jump off curtain to another curtain. Cut scene with the Dahaka
coming for you.
Run straight, turn left. Run down the steps, turn right. Wall-run on LEFT
WALL, camera perspective changes. Run down (away from the Dahaka, duh), avoid
all the barrels along the way then turn right (Prince Perspective). Run down
the steps and turn left. Wall-run on RIGHT WALL then get through the curtain
of water to [Time Portal].
Activate the [Time Portal] via randomly generated button sequence. Go through

((PC SAVEGAME 12/14/2004 11:20))
Save Title: [A Throne and a Mask]
Goal: [Return to the Throne Room (Past)]
Out the [Time Portal] and you'd be facing traps. Wall-run on LEFT WALL when
timing is right so you don't get smacked by the spinning spike columns. Go up
the steps and roll under the rotating twin blades. Turn left and go up the
steps past all the floor blades.
This next trap is a bit tricky. The smash bar will come out first, at which
time, you need jump forward and hang off the bar on the opposite side. When
the spike column goes past you, jump off the bar to the next platform.
Go up the steps, and avoid the wall blades by going to the left side first.
Then turn around and you'd see the leftmost spike column is moving. When the
opening presents itself, go on through.
Activate the [button] and open the [gate]. You'd find yourself in a big room
with [Scorpion Sword]. After you kill all the enemies, there's only one path
you can go. There is a small room that's empty, and a corridor with a fast
spinning spike column and a door way. Go through that, turn right and you'd
see another spinning spike column. Roll under it, turn right and you'd see a
wall that you can destroy with your new weapon. Charge it up and bash it open.
You'd find yourself in room with a [button], a [gate] and steps up with a
[lever]. Go up the steps and turn the [lever] to reveal bunch of new tougher
enemies. I recommend using the [pole] to swing around repeatedly to kill them
all. If you have to kill them without anything, once they block your attack,
roll to their side and attack from there. In one of the room now, should be a
[box] that you can drag on top of the [switch] to keep the [gate] open. Go
through the [gate] and jump off onto the [ladder] and climb down.
In this next room, kill the enemies. For the tough guy, I recommend tossing
him into the horizontal blades. When done, roll through the horizontal blade.
Run through the rotating blade on the right. And you'd find yourself with
another set of traps.
Run, roll through the rotating blade and avoid the floor saw blade. I'd
recommend [Slow Time] against the 2x saw blade + rotating blade. Bash open the
weak wall at the end of the corridor and you'd be in a new room!
Turn the [lever] in the room, and kill the enemies. Use the trap [button] or
the spike pit if you need it. Use [Slow Time] then activate the [button] on
the wall in the right room by wall-run up. Run through the [gate] and you'd be
greeted with another set of enemies. Tougher ones, toss them all into the pit.
Move through into the smaller room with a [lever], turn it and you'd find a
[fountain].

Goal: [Return to the Throne Room (Past)]
From the [fountain], wall-run on RIGHT WALL, then do wall-to-wall jump up to
the top. You'd fight [Boss Giant].
[Boss Tips - Boss Giant]
Roll under it, slash the calf. Bring him down, and smack his head. Whenever
he is leaning to one side, jump to the side he is leaning and hold yourself
there. You can jump to the sides by using the "drop down" button. Should be
easy.
After the boss fight, the big gate is open. Go into the room, and look on the
left. You should see a [ladder] next to the corner. Wall-run up to the
[ladder] and climb up. Jump off into the platform, smash the art work box, and
wall-run up to [button] to open [gate]. Go through the [gate] and kill the
enemies for sand if you don't have any.
From where you came in, there is a weak wall on the right and weak wall at the
far upper left. Go bash open both walls. Now, go to the room on the right.
[Slow Time] then wall-run up to activate the [button]. Run to the other room
you bashed open, and get through the gate. This is the [Seventh Life Upgrade]!
Trap 1 - [2x Spike Column] - Run through, roll if you need to.
Trap 2 - [Horizontal blade, spiked floor, 2x spiked column] Start running
through when you know the blade is coming and roll under the blade. Depending
on your luck, go either right or left against the spike columns. If left, hide
in the corner until time is right to run out and into the right side. It'd be
tough, use roll.
Trap 3 - [Horizontal blade, spiked floor, spiked columns] Start running when
you see the spiked columns are coming toward you about to turn around. Roll
under the blade and hope for the best. When you're at the end, wait for the
spike columns to clear and run in between the two stationary spike columns.
Trap 4 - [Spiked columns] Go up the steps under the spiked columns carefully!
Congratulation on the [Seventh Life Upgrade].
Go back the way you came, activate the [button] and run through. Take a left
through the doorway and wall-run up the LEFT WALL and jump onto the [wood
lattice walkway] above. Walk forward and jump onto the next [beam]. Climb up,
and jump into the wall [ledge]. Climb up and jump back onto the [beam]. Climb
up and jump into the [ledge] above the doorway. Climb up, and jump back onto

Go to the other end of the room to run-up wall and jump across to the [beam]
walkway above. Walk to the right, jump to the wall, and jump back to [beam]
above. Climb up and jump to [beam] to the right. Shimmy to the right, and
wall-jump up to the [beam] above. Climb up and be welcomed to the [library]!
Two ninja girls will appear, but they are really annoying so I tend to just run
past them. You'd see cut scene of the [Library]. It looks big, but it's
really simple.
Hop through the little stone bench and you'd be greeted with tons of enemies.
The best way is just to ignore them all, and keep running. If you want to kill
them, the black ninja women are best killed by using the throw and gank them
when they're on the ground. The black guards are best killed by getting them
into blocking position, and roll to the side to slash them to pieces.
Once you are done, run past the first [lever] on the left, past the [gate] and
into the room with the second [lever]. Turn the [lever] to reveal a new room.
Kill the new enemies, then in the room, you should find a [wall switch]. Hang
on it, and listen to the clicking sound. When the clicking stops with a big
click, [Slow Time] and run back to the [lever]. Turn it, then run to the
[gate] and through.
Climb on the [ladder] and go all the way up. Kill the two ninja girl. Turn
right, and run into a narrow walk way that opens up to a circular area. Turn
right, run to next circular area, turn left, kill enemies. Run through into
another section of the library, turn left, and run to the end. There is a
[pull-switch] at the end, pull both of them out and bookcases will appear.
Wall-to-wall jump up the two book cases, and get on the top. Wall-run on the
LEFT WALL, and grab onto the [bar]. Turn around, and swing up to the [beam].
Jump to the next [beam] and walk out to see bars on the Prince's left. Jump on
the [bar], and swing to the next. Swing off to the wall with [ledge] then
climb up until you reach the [beam] on top, then shimmy over to the right.
Climb up onto the beam, shimmy in and drop down onto the rock platform and get
out of the doorway going left (prince perspective). Now shimmy over to the
right, and jump up on the next ledge. Jump across to the circular [beam] and
get up on top. Walk around and defeat the ninja girl. Walk until you can jump
to the right onto the next set of circular [beam]. Walk to the right until you
reach the end, and jump to the wall with [ledge]. Climb down and fall to the
bottom ledge, shimmy to the right under the window and climb up into a doorway.
Welcome to the [Eighth Life Upgrade]
You'd first walk onto a beam, jump to the wall with [ledge] and climb all the
way down. Run past the steps, and into the doorway. Turn right, and you'd see
traps.
Trap 1 - [Spike Column, rotating blade] Wall-run on LEFT WALL, then jump off
across the rotating blade.
Trap 2 - [3x Spike Column, 3x floor saw blade, Spiked Floor] Roll under the
spike column, and stop! Don't step on the spiked floor just yet. Run when the
saw blades are coming towards you, and get past the spiked columns.
Trap 3 - [2x Spike Column] Wall-run on the LEFT WALL, and jump across soon as
you pass the ground spike column to avoid running into the sky spike column.
Congratulation on the [Eighth Life Upgrade]!
Go back the way you came until you reach the wall with ledges. Climb all the
way up, jump back across to the [beam] and walk back out. Climb down the
ledges and shimmy across. Climb back up and jump back onto the circular
[beam]. Walk around the circular [beam] until you reach the end, and jump
across to a small [platform]. Walk across the beam, and you'd be challenged by
ninja girl. Walk out onto the [plank] extension toward the next archway, then
jump off into next area. You'd be on another set of [beam] now, walk forward.
If you want to get the artwork box below, feel free. Just move the box to
corner, so you can wall-run up and jump back onto the beam again.
Anyway, keep going through the [beams] until Prince says, "These diversions are
costing me time." Drop down into the next area and you'd find a [Fountain].

find ninja girl on the opposite end. Wall-run on the RIGHT WALL and slash the
ninja girl on the way. Run up the steps, then wall-run on the LEFT WALL to

The place should suddenly look familiar. Kill the exploding dog, and go up the
step to bash through the door. Walk out on the walkway and jump onto the
platform. Get on the plank, and jump across the spinning cog. Go down the
platform to the right of the [Fountain] and climb down all the way. Run out of
the room and kill the Iron Giant. Run to the left alleyway. Run up the wall,
shimmy to the left and climb up. Shimmy to the right, climb up, then shimmy
right and go into the room.
If you want sand from the really weak enemies, you'd have to jump over them and
slash them in midair. Run through the room, past the [Fountain] on the right,
and pass the 2x smashing bar. Jump off to the ledge across, shimmy to the
right and go down the [ladder]. Jump off the [ladder] across the saw blades.
Wall-run on RIGHT WALL down the curtain. Wall-run up on the [switch] and [Slow
Time] to run through the [gate]. Duck under the two rotating blade, and you'd
find yourself back at [Central Hall]. Jump across, then turn right to drop

Get past the 2x spike column, 1x rotating blade. Wall-run on RIGHT WALL past
the 2x spike column, duck under the 1x rotating blade. Up the steps, wait for
the spiked column is going away from you, wall-run on LEFT WALL, and jump
across to the ledge. Wait for the spiked column to go away, climb on top and
jump up to top ledge. Wait for spiked column to come past you, climb down and

Run past 2x rotating blade. Up the step and pass another rotating blade.
Climb up the [ladder] leap across to step on [switch]. Run past the [gate].
Here is where you can first get the [Water Sword]. And for you to make a
decision. You can get the [Water Sword] now, and get the alternative ending.
Or you can IGNORE the [Water Sword], and get it later when the game is almost
over. Why would you choose the latter? So you can see both endings without 1
hour 40 minutes of backtracking. Why would you choose the former? Because the
[Water Sword] will kill most enemies you'd encounter from this point on in 3
slashes. It's up to you, make no difference to the FAQ what you do. To get
the sword, just walk up to it.
When ready, instead of going up the steps, turn left into a room with [lever].
I don't know what turning the [lever] will do. Wait till the saw blade just
hit the bottom and going up to wall-run on the LEFT WALL, past the twin saw
blades. Jump across the chasm to the other side before the spiked column smash
your head in. Go up the slope and you'd see a cut scene. Smash open the weak
throne wall, and go into the [Time Portal]. Another cut scene.
Activate the [Time Portal] via randomly generated button sequence. Go through

Keep going down the path, at the chasm with 2 spiked column, wall-run on RIGHT
WALL when the spiked columns are opening up. In the next trap, [Slow Time] and
walk through the 2 spiked columns. Go past the room with 5 guards. Approach
the spiked floor slowly, and horizontal blades will pop out shortly. Time it
when it's coming, roll under and get to the next section.
Turn right, and it'd be the same situation. Go when you know the horizontal
blades are coming and roll underneath. At the last part, do the same as
before, go when horizontal blades are coming, roll underneath and keep running
off the edge. You'd grab hold of the ledge. Pan the camera down, and just
drop down when the coast is clear, you'd catch on the ledge. Drop down a few
more times until you're on the ground.
Next, wall-run on either side of the wall when the 2x spiked column are going
apart and the wall saw blades are going down. Keep running past the spiked
floor, and go into the next room. Quick cut scene.
Head right and go down the room. Wild exploding doggie will come attack you.
You should slow time to prevent getting hurt and smack it thrice to be on your
way. Keep going straight down, and you'd see a [ladder] leading up to a
platform, take it up to the top. At the top, turn right, and jump across to
the next platform. Wall-run on the RIGHT WALL past the wall saw blades, and
get to the [lever] on this platform.
If where you came in is considered 12 o'clock, then the initial position of the
[lever] is 3 o'clock, twist it until it's at 12 o'clock. The hot magma will
now flow through the tubes to the other side. Get on the [beam] at 9 o'clock
leading from your current platform to the next. At this [lever], it starts at
3 o'clock, turn it until it's at 6 o'clock, and the hot magma will now flow
into more tubes.
You can either wall-run on the RIGHT WALL past the saw blade, onto the [bar],
swing to the next [bar], shimmy left then swing onto the platform. Or you can
jump down, run to the [ladder] and get back on the platform again.
The starting position of this [lever] is 12 o'clock, turn it to 6 o'clock and
the cut scene will ensue showing the hot magma flowing through the tubes and
into the cauldron.
Jump down, and go to where the platform collapsed (toward 6 o'clock position)

going through all the ledges. [Slow Time] then jump through the spinning gear.
Walk forward on the plank and drop down onto the platform where 3 exploding
doggies will wait for you. Cut scene will show you where to go.
From where you jump off, turn right and jump on the [beam]. Climb up and jump
across to the circular [beam] room plank. Walk off the plank, then shimmy to
the right. Climb down and you'd hang on the ledge. Pan the camera to look
down so you can drop onto the plank at the bottom. Walk down back toward the
platform, and jump onto it. Go onto the [ladder] in the middle of the
platform, and climb down to the bottom. Walk onto the beam, and jump across to
the [Fountain].

Run to the right, drop down all the way. Run out and kill the Iron Giant. I'd
copy and paste from before. To the left of the closed [gate] is a small
alleyway (it's where you first came in from). Wall-run up and you should reach
a ledge at the end of the alleyway. Shimmy to the left and climb up all the

[Final Boss Tips (The Pretty One)] (File 20/21)
If you're playing on [Hard], she is pretty tough with attacks that'd suck out
your health like a ... succubus! So, here're some quick tips!
1) Do not use your sand tanks until she [Slow Time]. When she does, you must
have the sand tanks to [Slow Time] to counter it.
2) One of the best combo on her when the time is slowed is [Slash, slash, jump
over, slash (air), slash (air), slash, slash, slash, slash]. The other combo
for damage is just [Slash, Slash, Jump over her, and slash, slash]. Don't push
your luck and try to slash when you can back off.
3) When she does the sand cyclones, it's going to be tough, but you must not
waste your sand tanks! Try to always run where you can see, and not down into
the bottom of the screen (if you do, you might run into an incoming cyclone).
Try your best to keep track of them.
4) The easiest way to damage her is by using combo breakers. Attack her
normally until she blocks, then you go into blocking stance as well. If she
slashes normally, block, then counter attack (you'd kick then slash). If the
counter is BLOCKED, immediately retreate.
5) If she ever raises both blades into the air, back away.
6) If she is doing teleporting kicks/slashes, try to roll away.
7) Always wait for a better opportunity to attack! Don't push your luck! If
you are patient, she is VERY EASY.
That's all the tips I have. Just conserve your sand tanks for slowing time
to counter hers. Good luck!
*******************************************************************************
[Final Boss Tips (The Ugly One)] (File 18/21)
If you got the [Water Sword] and and playing on [Hard Level] these tips will
come in handy, trust me. The boss is not as hard as Alma from Ninja Gaiden on
Very Hard level, but it is a long battle nonetheless.
\\\ General Information ///
His attacks are very quick, and unless [Slow Time] is activated, it's very
difficult to avoid them. He doesn't really walk, but jump from place to place.
He has only a few attacks, and the patterns aren't very hard to tell. The
problem is when he gets pissed and starts going crazy after the first phase.
It's a LONG battle. I see no way around it. So be prepared mentally and don't
be hasty and greedy. Be conservative and take it slow, and you will win.
\\\ His Attacks ///
1) If you're close to mid-range away, he will use tendril swipe that'd hurt
like mad. You can roll underneath it.
2) If you're far away, he will use ground tendril attack that poke up from the
ground that also hurts like hell. You can also avoid this
3) If you're far away, and he is pissed, he CAN jump on top of you, and this
hurts like hell.
4) If you are close/melee range, he will punch you in several different ways.
Most of which can be avoided by Block+jump back, but this is risky if your
[Slow Time] is running low.
\\\ Tactics ///
<<< Phase 01 >>>
1) You start out in front of him. [Slow Time] immediately, and smack him fast
as you can. When he starts a motion to attack you, backflip out of the way
or roll to the side and immediately get back to smack him.
2) Keep [Slow Time] active at ALL times. DO NOT GET HURT here.
3) When you're running out of sand (down to one tank), during one of his punches
back flip and just keep backing off. He will start his FARAWAY tendril attack.
4) To avoid his FARAWAY tendril attack, know that he PREDICTS where you will be
by the direction you're going. If you run in a circle, he will never hit you.
If you run in a zig zag, it won't touch you either. During Phase 01, he will
stick out about 4~5 tendrils.
5) When you finish collecting more sand, approach him with Slow Time active.
Try to run in zig-zag motion towards him, or whenever he isn't sticking tendrils
into the ground. When you are close to him, try to go to either side of him,
so when he does his tendril swipe, you can roll underneath it.
5) When he gets down to about 70% health, have at least 3~4 sank tank full at
all times.
6) Your helper will blast him with ion sand cannon, and he'd hang off the ledge.
7) Quickly slow time, and take the path that'd let you go through a sand, to
maybe recharge one or two tanks.
8) Smack him quick as you can! And keep time slowed. I would actually
recommend leaving 1 sand tank unused. Because he WILL get up, and he WILL be
pissed off.
<<< Phase 02 >>>
1) You start out this phase with him going crazy and jumping all over the place.
You need to watch where he is going to land, and quickly get away from wherever
he is landing at. Backflip away as soon as he lands, and hopefully, you'd avoid
his tendril swipes. Slow time down if he is landing REALLY close to you, and
you can't get away. Try to run into the sands as you run around too.
2) He'd calm down, and start to use FARAWAY tendril attacks. This is when you
go back to using the tactics from Phase 01.
3) Soon, when he gets down to 30~40%, your helper will blast him again. So
before that happens, keep your sand tanks level up high.
4) Smack him best as you can. If you don't, he'd recover to more health!
<<< Phase 03 >>>
1) You start out this phrase the same as Phrase 02. He is going to be pissed,
avoid him the best you can.
2) His ground tendril attacks now stick out about 7~8 tendrils. It's going to
be tricky, run in circles the best that you can. For those with analog stick,
just rotate your stick at a medium pace.
3) Use the same tactics as before, and you should kill him in this phrase unless
you've been slacking in your smacking when he is hanging off the edge.

*******************************************************************************
So you didn't use my FAQ from the beginning, and just before you reach the final
boss, you realized you aren't in the path for the alternative ending. What's
missing you ask? Life Upgrades for the [Water Sword]! In order to get the
[Water Sword], you must get all the life upgrades. There are some Life Upgrades
that are inaccessible at this point, so I hope you got them before here. These
unattainable last minute life upgrades (along with last posssible moment to get
them) are as followed:
- [Second Life Upgrade] - Sacrificial Altar - Past, accessible prior to
[Part 6: What is written in the timeline can be changed!]
Segment 8 - Central Hall - Past
- [Fourth Life Upgrade] - Garden Hall - Past, accessible prior to

Segment 8 - Central Hall - Past
- [Sixth Life Upgrade] - Activation Room - Past, accessible prior to

Jump across the chasm toward the other entrance to [Central Hall]. Straight out
and you should 2x rotating blades and a guard beyond. Pass that, jump across
the pit to the [ledge] and hop up to shimmy left. Jump back across the pit and
avoid the rotating blade. Down the steps, and through bunch of enemies. Down
the stairs, all the way to the bottom.
Turn left, pass [Fountain] and 2x spiked columns, 1 spike column, 2x spiked
columns to the courtyard. Turn right, and wall-run up the ledge, then wall-run
up and jump across to top platform. Wall-run on LEFT WALL across, and dispatch
guards.
At the stair steps, instead of going up, there should be a small area to the
left of the stair with barrels and button. Break the barrel, and activate the
button. This is going to be really hard, and requires you to be REALLY fast
(or you can come back later after you get Eye of the Storm). You need to run
up the wall of the stair step and hop over the railing (so you don't need to go
around). As you are going up the stairs, hug the left wall, and use wall run -
- this makes you run faster. When you reach the top, run for the little rat
hole quick as you can, and roll -- hope you make it in. You can do it, I did
it.
Another method of making it, is by using roll ALL the way. Activate the button
then jump over the railing of the step. Soon as you land, start rolling up the
steps and don't stop jamming on the roll button until you are through the rat
hole! <<- Benjamin H>>
Trap 1 - [Bar Smasher, Rotating Blade, Floor spikes] When the bar is
retracting, wall run on the right.
Trap 2 - [2x Bar smasher, rotating blade, floor spike] When the bars are
retracting, roll under the blade, and run.
Trap 3 - [Bar Smasher, 2x rotating blade, floor spike] When bars are
retracting, wall run past the blade, then jump across to get on top of the bar
smasher. As it retracts, jump and land into the corner safe from the last
rotating blade. Roll through the last blade, and get your health.
Retrace your step. You can run across the spikes on the floor. Wall run up
and activate the button. Roll through the rat hole. Go down the stairway, run
toward where the poles are, then drop down. Move on through to the next room
where the moving rotating vertical spikes are. Avoid the first set of spike by
walking around them. Roll under the second spike. Move around the third set,
and you should be at a fountain.
Move through and then go up the stairs toward the fortress. (I didn't kill
them again, and just ran through).
Up the stairs, and you should see [spinning blade], roll under it and jump
across to the ledge. Jump up on the ledges until you are hanging off the very
top one and shimmy across. Drop down until you are standing on the bottom
ledge, and jump across. Avoid the [spinning blades] and keep moving. You
should now be back in the [Central Hall].

************************ I M P O R T A N T N O T E ***************************
Seems like the game won't let me jump on the broken wall near the end of the
backtracking from [The Warrior Within] save game. From playing the game
repeatedly and from different save games, I noticed that while on the column's
ledge before jumping onto the broken wall, there is a [wood plank lattice] that
you can shimmy onto that is NOT present in prior save games (before the mask).
This is probably why you can't jump on the broken wall, because the path has
changed to seal you in. So, if you are starting from the very end, I don't know
how to get back to the [Central Hall] after getting the [Second Life Upgrade],
email me if you do. The last possible moment that I know of to get this [Life
Upgrade] is [Part 6, Segment 6] of the main walkthrough.
************************ I M P O R T A N T N O T E ***************************
At [Central Hall], go to the [lever] in the central platform. And turn it until
it's pointing at 6 o'clock (12 o'clock is pointing the Fountain). Turn back to
facing toward the [Fountain] and wall-run up the platform to the left. climb up
on the ledges on your left until you reach the top. You should now face a bunch
of columns. Jump across poles until you reach the opposite side platforms.
On the platform, wall run up one level, and you should be on the same level as
the balcony with a red curtain. Wall-run on LEFT WALL, then jump across to the
balcony. Go through and you should see [rotating spike column] then a chasm,
then another [rotating spike column] then another chasm. Once you cross all
that, you'd come to a ladder.
You should now be at a huge chasm, with two rotating spike columns. Wall run
across when you get the timing down. You should be at another ladder, with
three criss-crossing spike columns. Go down when you get the timing down (it
looks harder than it is). At the bottom of the ladder (don't drop down), jump
across to the ledge, shimmy around and jump onto the ladder then go all the way
down. Pass the spike floor, then the [Fountain] then the spiked floor with
rotating spike column. You should come up to another set of rotating spike
columns. Move around them, easy enough. Get through the next room,
slaughtering everything in your path if you like.
Go down the steps, and hang off the ledge. Use the curtain, then jump off onto
the beam. From beam, jump to next beam. Jump across to next beam. Jump to
next beam. Jump onto the walkway, and run to avoid the spike trap. Pass the
[Fountain] and into the next room.
Don't bother going up the steps, instead, from the doorway, hop up the rock
platform on your left. Jump across the chasm to the [ledge] on the column.
Climb up, jump up, climb up, jump up then climb up to reach the top. Shimmy to
the right and around all the way to the other side, then jump across the chasm
to the next column's [ledge]. Shimmy around the corner of the [ledge] until you
can jump onto the shiny circular platform. Jump across and climb up.
Look to your left, then go up the steps to what looks like a big throne with
blood all over. Pull the throne to reveal a hidden doorway in the back.
First trap - Spiked floor with two rotating spike columns. Timing -- stay in
the middle of the path, and predict where the columns will go toward the end of
your trip. Then, avoid.
Second trap - Spiked floor with rotating spike column and rotating blade.
Start running when the column is hitting the bottom. As soon as you pass the
column, start running on the wall, this should get you through the rotating
blade.
Third trap - Wall blade, spiked floor, and rotating blade. Start running
across the wall when the blade is going down just above your height. When you
land, try to roll to avoid the blade.
Fourth trap - Spiked floor, moving rotating spiked columns. Run toward the
spike column as it moves toward you. Roll under and keep running.
As you exit the life upgrade area and back to where you fought Shahdee. Look
to your left, and you should see rock steps that you can climb on. Get on, and
jump across to a ledge. Shimmy to your right, and then jump on the [bar].
Swing up to the next ledge and then jump across moving left. Shimmy around,
and jump on another [bar] going left still. Swing up, wall jump up to the
[bar] above. Turn around, and swing up on platform.
Run up the wall, and get on the rope. Swing across and land on the [beam].
Jump across, and pass the [Fountain] then move right toward the broken bridge.
Hang off, and drop down to a small beam below. Jump across and shimmy over to
the right. Now, jump across to the column to the north with a ledge. Shimmy
around, then jump across to the [bar]. Swing up and land on another beam. Jump
up onto the wall to get up twice. Shimmy around to get on a platform.
Run around the rock steps, then wall-run on LEFT WALL across to next platform.
Run up wall and grab rope. Swing over, and land on platform. Go through the
doorway.
To the right of the doorway, are ledges you can wall run up and grab a hold
onto. Jump up twice, and you should see a [bar]. Swing up on the bars, until
you reach room above with spike trap on floor.
Run up the wall to the ledge, then keep going up until you can see two bars.
Jump onto the [bar], then swing up and jump off wall to get onto the [bar]
above. Then swing up onto the NORTH wall (not toward the entrance from whence
you came) and you should grab onto a ledge. Shimmy around to the left. Pull
up and jump across when the spinning spike column is on the far end.
In the next part, wall-run on RIGHT WALL, when the blade is on the top to grab
rope. Jump across to the other rope then swing across when time is right. You
can stop swinging on the rope and RESWING at anytime to get new timing. The
next set of traps, spinning columns, should be easy.
Go through the [Time Portal] then go back from where you came. Avoid the traps,
should be easy. Jump across to the [ledge], shimmy right then drop down. Wall-
run on LEFT WALL, to the other ledge, drop down all the way. [Slow Time] then
walk on button, slow time down, go on through the gate and kill a few guards.
Drop down and you should see a familiar room.
From where you stand, wall run across (on the wall where the portcullis is,
should be behind you) to reach a beam. Jump across to next beam. Shimmy to
the end ,then turn to look at the wall. Should see a [rope]. Jump across,
swing on the [rope] then run off to get on the [bar]. Swing over to the next
bar, then to the platform. On the platform, walk out onto the little protruding
plank, then jump out onto the [iron beam]. Walk out to the end of the beam,
then jump across to the column to hang on the ledge. Shimmy around the ledge,
and jump across to go down the curtain. At the end of the curtain, jump off to
land on a [beam]. Walk to the end of the beam, and jump off onto a [bar].
Shimmy around, and you should see a platform that might seem too far away.
Swing and jump onto it anyway. From the platform, jump down again to the final
bottom platform and if you want, kill the enemies.
At the far end of the platform, there should be a crumbling wall. To the right
of the wall, should be a ledge. Get up on the ledge, then you'd need to do
wall-to-wall jumps to go up between the column and the wall. At the very top
on the column, shimmy around the ledge, and you should see a [bar]. Jump off
onto the bar, then [jump onto the broken wall]* and into the hallway.
From the hallway's [Fountain], turn left and go through the hole in the wall.
Go right and you should see an open area that look a dead end. Turn around and
look to your right, you should see a rock platform that you can hop on. At the
top of the two small rock platform, wall-run up the wall and you should grab
onto the ledge. Shimmy around the corners, and to the right. At the end, get
up on the platform then wall-run on LEFT WALL. Run past a bunch of flag poles
and at the end, jump down on the platform below then roll through the rat hole.
Go straight, up a set of steps, then drop down to a platform. To your right,
should be a [pole]. Wall-run on LEFT WALL, jump across to [pole]. Climb up
then jump to platform. Go in the doorway and turn left. Leap over the railing
on the right, and drop down to platform below. Wall-run on the LEFT WALL, and
hang onto the [ledge] at the end. Shimmy around the corners then to the left
and drop down. Run forward, wall-run on RIGHT WALL, through the corridors, to
the [Time Portal] and go through.
Go back from where you came. Avoid the 2x spiked columns, wall-run on wall
avoiding saw blades. In the room, look left and climb up on the pole and jump
across to the ledge on a column. Jump up and shimmy across onto the platform
with a broken box (you do remember this room, right?) Jump over onto the ledge
above the entrance, shimmy around, and jump across to the next platform. Run
around, wall run to hit the button, and use the curtain to get down.
Go out the door, past the courtyard, pass the 2x spike columns, 1x spike
columns, and 2x spike columns, pass the fountain, up the long stairs into the
fortress.
Go past the rotating blade trap, jump across pit onto the ledge, up the ledges,
shimmy across, down the ledges, across the chasm, past the twin rotating blade.
We are now back at the [Central Hall].

From the [Central Hall], jump across and turn the [lever] until it's pointing at
the [Fountain]. Run toward the exit (the one without the water fountain), and on
the right side, you should see a little depression. Go down and hang off of the
depression. Jump across and you'd start a wall-to-wall jump that'd slowly
descend you. At the bottom, jump down to the platform below.
Here is a tough part, you are going to wall run toward the direction of the
exit, and BEFORE you reach the end (if you reach it, you'd jump backward,
causing you to die), you need to jump across and start wall-to-wall jump
upward. A cue to start jumping is when the Prince seems to hit a bump on the
wall.
In the next part, you'd be doing the same again. Wall run across, and start
wall-to-wall jump before you reach the end. This will descend you. Go through
the doorway. Don't die, else you'd have to do it ALL OVER.
Trap 1 - [4 rotating spiked column with floor spike] Start running when the
one column going up and down is reaching the bottom.
Trap 2 - [Rotating blade, three rotating spiked columns] This one is very
exciting. As the one spike cclumn is going away from you, roll, and wall run
across. Soon as you cross the one spiked column, just let go of all buttons
and drop down. Hope you don't get hit!
On your way back, there're spiked floor, but you can run through them, no
problem. As you reach back at the [Central Hall], go left, and jump across the
chasm. Then wall-to-wall jump back up to where you were.

Jump across to the ledge, and let yourself all the way down. At the very
bottom, go to the other end of the room, and pull yourself all the way to the
top again. You'd come to a fountain.
In the next room, pull on the lever to open the door. You can fight them all,
or ignore them. Soon as you run past the first guard, and go up into a garden
like area with tree, run to your left and into the corner. You should see an
opening on the fence. Drop down there and you'd see a ledge below you. Drop
down there and shimmy around and drop down until you reach platform. Wall run
on LEFT WALL across.
In the next room, just lower yourself by jumping across from ledge to ledge.
It's not hard. Once you are at the bottom, jump to the [bar] and swing over to
the opposite end of the room. Go to the left side of the room, and go down on
the ledge again until you reach another floor down.
Trap 1 - [Horizontal Blade, Floor Spikes] - Run across, and roll when you know
the blades are coming.
Trap 2 - [Horizontal rotating spike column, rotating blade, and floor spike] -
Run across when the spike column is coming, roll under. Then roll under the
blade.
Trap 3 - [Spike columns, floor spikes, horizontal blade] - Run past the spike
columns, and then roll under the horizontal blades.
Trap 4 - [Rotating blade, floor spikes, rotating spike column] - Roll past the
blade, and roll under the column as it comes toward you.
Go back the way you came. Jump up on ledge, jump up, jump up, jump across,
shimmy, jump up, etc, jump on [bar] swing across, jump up, shimmy, jump up, etc.
Out the area, wall-run on RIGHT WALL, wall-run up to the ledge, climb up, jump +
climb up, and shimmy around and get back onto the main platform. Run down to
the [gate], turn [lever] and go through.
Climb down the ledges till the bottom, and climb back up all the way on the
other side of the room. Hang over the edge, and shimmy left. Drop down onto
the curtain, and go all the way down. Head out of the courtyard, pass the
[Fountain], jump down, run to the end, jump up on the ledge, jump up on
platform. Jump down on the next section, run to the end, jump up on the ledge,
jump up on the platform with a button. Avoid the 2x rotating blades, dispatch
the enemies, and go back out into the [Central Hall].

From the [Central Hall], turn the lever till it's pointing at 3 o'clock position
(12 o'clock points to [Fountain]).
Turn around facing toward the [Fountain] then look right to see a [ledge]. Get
on top then go around the corner. Wall-run on the LEFT WALL. Jump across and
you'd be on a ledge. Shimmy around, jump up, jump across, jump up, shimmy over,
jump across, jump up, and you'd be at the entrance to the [Water Tower].
Roll under the trap, and when you hit the button, immediately [Slow Time] and
run fast as you can across the timed floor. In the next section, wall run up
the right wall and jump onto bar overhead. Swing across and activate the
switch. Soon as you hit the switch, activate [Slow Time] and run across the
timed floor again. Go pass the [Fountain] into the courtyard. Look to the left
and run up the wall and jump back to get a hold of the ladder.
On the top of the ladder, RavenMan awaits you. Ignore him and go up the next
set of ladders. At this platform, turn about and jump across to the other
platform. Go up the [ladder] and at the top of the platform, jump across to the
[bar] that seems too far away. Swing over to the platform. Jump over the
railing and from hanging position, jump onto the [bar]. Swing over to the next
[bar] then over to the [platform].
Run into the corridor on the left, and you'd see a [ladder]. Get on the
[ladder] then jump across to the [switch]. Open the [gate] run through. At
the end, you'd see a couple enemies waiting (best to kill them or throw them
off into the abyss). Now, out on the platform, face to the left. Wall run on
the LEFT WALL onto ledges. Climb up on the ledge twice and then shimmy onto
platform. Get on the ladder and climb up.
Wall run on the RIGHT WALL back toward the entrance. Time your run so you
won't get sliced through. Go into the corridor. You'd now wall run on the
RIGHT WALL pass two wall blades, and jump across the chasm at the end of wall
run. You'd be rewarded with a fountain when you make it across.
Wall run up and go into the big open area. Go into the middle and make sure the
[lever] is at 9 o'clock position (12 is where the main big [lever] is all the
way at the top). Go to the top left block and you should see that it has a
little stepping stone right before it. Get on the stepping stone, then wall run
up onto the top of the block.
Walk off the block onto a plank, then jump toward the [pole]. Shimmy upward
and turn right to see a [ledge] to the north. Jump off onto the ledge then
shimmy around the corner toward left. Get off the ledge, and wall run on the
Prince's RIGHT WALL (Prince Perspective) and grab hold onto a [rope]. Keep
going and run off the rope and you'd find yourself at a lever. Make sure the
[lever] is pointing to 6 o'clock with the long extension of the block facing out
toward a platform to the 6 o'clock. Walk onto the [plank] then jump across to
the [plank] of the [block]. Now walk on the [long extension plank] and jump
onto the next platform.
Once landed, walk forward, then turn left and run across the platform. At the
end, you'd see a plank on your left. Walk on the plank, and jump across to
[block]. On the [block] turn right and jump across to another [lever].
The lever is at 6 o'clock position initially, turn it until it's at the 12
o'clock position with both block's long extension pointing at 12 o'clock
position. Walk toward 12 o'clock, and wall run on your RIGHT WALL onto a
[rope] Keep going and run off the rope onto a corner area with ledge. Jump up
on the ledge and shimmy around the corner to the end. Jump off the ledge onto
the [pole]. Turn right and jump off the pole onto the [block]. Walk on the
long [plank] and jump onto the platform to 12 o'clock. Jump down into the
small depression and roll under the gate.
Jump up from the platform onto ledge above, and jump up again to see door way
with railing. Go in.
Trap 1 - [Spiked floor, rotating spike column] - Time your run. Start running
when spiked column is coming down. Roll if you need to.
Trap 2 - [Spiked floor, 3 rotating spike columns] - Again, time your run.
Start running when the first column is half way going up. Easy enough.
Retrace your steps after getting [Fifth Life Upgrade] and back to the [lever].
Roll under the gate, and then back out into the open area.
Jump across to the block where you came from. Onto the [pole] and back on the
[ledge]. Shimmy around the corner, and drop down. Wall run on the LEFT WALL
(Prince perspective) and onto the [rope]. Run off the [rope] and onto the
[lever] platform. Turn the [lever] until it's back to the 6 o'clock position.
Jump off the lever platform via the [plank] to the [block] then jump from the
[long plank] onto the sky bridge. Turn right and run to the end and then jump
back on the [block]. Turn left and jump from the [plank] onto the [lever]
platform. Wall run on the LEFT WALL, grab onto the [rope] and run off to the
corner. Jump up onto the [ledge] on the wall and shimmy around until the end.
Jump off onto the [pole]. Turn left, and shimmy down a bit to jump off onto
[block]. Climb down the block easy. Exit the room from where you first came
in, [gate] at around 2 o'clock position of the room.
Wall-run on the LEFT WALL into the corner. Wall-run on the LEFT WALL again,
pass the blades. Go outside, wall-run on the LEFT WALL past the blades.
On the platform, go down the [ladder]. Wall run on the RIGHT WALL (Prince
perspective). You'd drop down and hang on the ledge. Get up on the platform,
and get into the corridor. Climb up the [ladder] jump across to activate
[switch]. Run through the [gate] and go through some twist and turns to get
back on the balcony with 2 enemies. Leap over railing and hang off then jump
over to the [bar]. Jump again to another [bar] and again to the platform.
Run to the end of the platform. Turn left and you'd see a wall with [rope].
Wall-run on the LEFT WALL, grab onto the [rope] then run off the
rope. Run up the wall to activate the button. Go back to where you came by
wall-run on the RIGHT WALL (Prince Perspective) back onto the [rope] then run
off the [rope] onto the platform. Now climb on the protruding block, and then
wall-run up then jump before reaching apex to grab onto a [bar]. Shimmy on the
[bar] toward the north where a ledge is. Swing off the [bar] onto the [ledge].
Shimmy on the ledge around the corner, and then climb down from the ledge.
Wall-run up the wall and jump off the wall to get on the [hanging switch]. Get
off the switch (not sure if the switch did anything, but better safe than
sorry), then wall run up to climb up on the ledge to the right. Shimmy around
the corner then Jump across to the opposite ledge. Shimmy around the corners,
and climb down.
Go into the hole with the [ladder] and climb down. On the platform, go left
and jump across to climb down the [ladder] to where the RavenMan is. You'd
find another set of [ladder] going down. Climb down, then go through the
corridor on the left of the [ladder] back toward [Central Hall]. There is a
[Fountain] to the right, save if you like.
Jump down, run to the end, jump up on the ledge, jump up on platform. Jump
down on the next section, run to the end, jump up on the ledge, jump up on the
platform with a button. Avoid the 2x rotating blades, dispatch the enemies,
and go back out into the [Central Hall].
Go to the lever, and turn it until it's facing the 9 o'clock position (with the
Fountain) as the 12 o'clock position. Go save, and prepare for the [Mechanical
Tower].

************************ I M P O R T A N T N O T E ***************************
[12/11/04]
The [gate] is closed leading to the [Time Portal] required to get to the main
clock room. When you are here with the mask and races back to the throne room,
the [gate] is forcibly closed and you have to go down the [curtain] to return to
the [Central Hall], the spot is marked in brackets in the next section.
After meeting this failure, I went back from [Part 6, Segment 8] to try this
again. The [gate] that's closed previously, is open, and I went through to the
very end, meeting the Bomb Giant. It no longer throws any bomb, and there is no
platform between it and the Prince. No matter what I tried, I cannot get to
where the Bomb Giant to take the short cut route out. Boy, I was frustrated
until I thought about going back in time and just retrace my steps. Well, that
ended in failure too.
It is my belief that if you didn't get this life upgrade when you're supposed to
(before fighting the Bomb Giant the first time, you're SOL). If you know an
alternative way to get to the life upgrade after that point in the game, please
email me.
[12/14/04]
jhaines from GameFAQs said my version is glitched. So, I played the PC version
through today and see that the bridge does exist while the Bomb Giant is gone.
So the life upgrade is accessible from [Part 6, Segment 8], but not from the
very end [The Warrior Within]
[12/28/04]
You'd need the [Scorpion Sword] or [Water Sword] to break open the wall. If
you don't have either, come back when you do. You have time! <<-GB>>
If you read the note for [12/11/04], my problem is with the glitched Xbox and
that backtracking won't work without the bridge. Chad W, emailed me to provide
a solution to the problem, but, unfortunately, I cannot get it to work (though
it shows promise, so maybe I just suck). So, for those of you facing the
glitched version, the walk through now has a fork to provide you with a possible
way to get through and back to the [Central Hall].
************************ I M P O R T A N T N O T E ***************************
Go to the lever, and turn it until it's facing the 9 o'clock position (with the
Fountain) as the 12 o'clock position. From the fountain, look on the other side
of the entrance and you should see a weapon's rack. Destroy that. [Wall run]
on the RIGHT WALL from there, and jump across to reach the platform. On the
platform, wall run on the RIGHT WALL and you'd find yourself hanging on a ledge
at the end. Jump up, shimmy, jump up, jump up. Now, jump across the chasm to
reach platform. Wall run up, and get up on the top of the platform. Look to
your left, jump across to reach the clock tower entrance.
Jump on the switch, [Slow Time] and run through the [gate]. At the next
hallway, jump across the chasm then run to the end and do wall-to-wall jumps.
At the top, pass the trap blades and go up the [ladder].
At the top of the ladder, shimmy off the ladder and around the ledge until you
are opposite of the platform. Jump across. Avoid the thrusting bars and pass
the [Fountain]. Head downstairs and get past the guards heading straight
against the wall to your right. Keep going out and you'd be hugging the ledge
on the right wall. Shimmy out then climb down to the ledge below. Hang from
the ledge, then shimmy to the left then drop down twice until you can hang
and shimmy to the right toward a platform landing area. Go through the gate
into room.
In the room, turn left and you should see button on wall next to some
waterfalls. Activate the button by wall-run up. A [block] will come out of
the wall to your right. Run up the [block] then run up the wall to hang on a
wooden ledge. Climb up on the ledge then jump to climb up on the platform
pass the [fountain] on the right and into the main room on the left.
[Slow Time] and jump through the gear wheel. Climb on the [ladder] to the top.
Look to the right and climb on the [beam]. Jump across to the opposite side
onto the [plank] and shimmy to the right and climb up to the top. Shimmy back
over to the left, and drop down to the room below. Climb up the [ladder] and
shimmy to the half way and get on the protruding plank. Jump across to the
platform and three exploding dogs will attack.
Climb down and look to the left to the spinning gear. Climb up on the [beam]
and jump across to the [plank] sticking out of the wall. Jump to the [plank]
on the right, and jump + climb up to the ledge above. Shimmy to the left and
jump + climb on the next ledge. Shimmy left and enter the corridor.
Roll under the blade or run past it, but be careful, a smashing bar is very
close to the left of the rotating blade. When the smashing bar is fully
extended, jump up on top of the bar, and wall-run on RIGHT WALL, past the twin
spinning spike columns. Get past the next bar and you'd be faced with two
spinning spiked columns again. Get past them, and run down the steps past two
more spinning spike columns. Jump up on the ledge to your left, and jump up
against to shimmy around the corner to activate the [button]. Drop down and
run through the [gate]. Go down the steps and you'd meet up with a [fountain].
Go down another set of steps, and you'd meet up with some enemies. I
recommend tossing them off to the abyss. Activate [Slow Time] then wall-run up
to activate the wall [button]. Jump up on the [block] and then wall-run up to
the [rope] above. Wall-run off the [rope] and get on to the catwalk above.
Here, you'd meet two more enemies, toss them off and keep going straight then
to the right.
Run to the end of the catwalk and you'd see a huge spinning gear with axels
that you'd have to pass through while wall-running. Wall-run on the LEFT WALL
and avoid the axel by going just as it leaves enough room for you. Land on the
platform, and toss more enemies off into the abyss. Now, you're facing a
faster spinning gear. [Slow Time] if you need it, and wall-run on the LEFT
WALL. Jump off at the end of the run to a [pole]. Jump across to the next
[pole] on the left, then jump to [pole] on the right, then jump to [pole] on
right again. Jump forward into platform with [lever] lit with fire.
Jump onto the [platform] and look back toward the [lever] platform. At the
apex of the elevator [platform] wall-run on RIGHT WALL, and jump off before
reaching the end to do wall-to-wall jumps up to the top. You should now be in
a big room with a fireplace.
Go through the doorway with exploding dog waiting for you on the wall.
Wall-run on LEFT WALL, slash the dog, and grab onto the [rope]. Wall-run off
the rope then jump across to the platform with pool of water. Drink up if you
need it. When ready, look at the spinning contraption and notice that there
are alternating holes on the bottom of each gate. Roll through the [gates]
until you reach the other end.
Jump up on the [bar] and swing to the next [bar], then swing onto the platform.
Toss off the few enemies, and [go through the gate]*.
Trap 1 - [Spinning spike column, spiked floor] Run through.
Trap 2 - [spiked floor] easy enough.
Trap 3 - [Chasm with wall blades] Wall-run on the RIGHT WALL onto [rope]. When
time is right, wall-run off the rope and onto the platform.
Trap 4 - [Spinning spike column, smashing bar] Avoid the column and run through
the smashing bar.
Trap 5 - [2x Smashing bar, 2x spinning spike column] Jump up on the column when
it's extended, and wall-run on LEFT WALL past the spike column. Avoid the last
spinning column and the smashing bar.
Trap 6 - [2x spinning spike column] Wall-run on LEFT WALL when the opportunity
presents itself.
Go through the [Time Portal] and retrace your steps through the traps.
Trap 1 - [2x spinning spike column] Wall-run on RIGHT WALL when opportunity
comes.
Trap 2 - [2x Smashing bar, 2x spike column] Jump up on the smashing bar just as
it fully extends itself. Wall-run on LEFT WALL immediately, at end of the run,
jump across to land on top of the smashing bar to avoid being smashed.
Trap 3 - [2x spike column, smashing bar] Walk past them.
Trap 4 - [Chasm, wall blade] Wall-run on LEFT WALL when opportunity comes.
Grab onto the [rope] then stop running back and forth on the rope. Jump off
the rope to the ledge on your right. Shimmy across, and climb down to shimmy
the rest of the way on to the platform.
Trap 5 - [Spiked floor, spiked column, spiked floor] - Just run past, easy
enough.
You'd come back out into a big room with 2 guards waiting. Hang off the side
and go to where the [curtain] is, drop off and fall to the bottom platform.
You'd now wall-run on the LEFT WALL past the spinning axel, and jump across to
[pole]. Jump onto the next few [poles] until you reach the end with the
platform. Jump onto the elevator [platform]. Wall-run on the RIGHT WALL, and
before reaching the end, jump across to do wall-to-wall jump up until you reach
the big room with bunch of enemies waiting. Kill them all. Run out through the
door to the far right and wall-run on LEFT WALL onto [rope] then run-off [rope]
into platform with pooled water.
Run ahead and go through the gate by rolling under. Jump over chasm then roll
under gate. The camera angle shows you where you need to go. Jump across the
broken bridge, dispatch the guard. Climb down the platform on the right side,
and drop down onto ledges until you reach the bottom platform. Dispatch guard
again.
Jump across the [broken bridge] and kill another guard. Turn to your left, and
jump across the waterfall to the platform waiting beyond. Go through the
doorway shown in the cut scene earlier.
Move through the corridor, avoiding a few simple traps until you get to a
[button]. Go through the [gate] after activating the [button] and dispatch all
guards and exploding dog within.
Climb up on the [ladder] till you reach very top, and you'd see an opening on
the spinning contraption that you can jump onto from the [ladder]. Once on top
of the rotating platform, wall-run up the left wall onto a ledge and climb up,
then jump-up + climb up. You should see a ledge being rotated around the axel,
jump on the [ledge].
Once the [ledge] rotates you around to the other side, jump off onto the ledge
on the wall and raise yourself to the top level. Now jump back across to the
spinning ledge. Jump up, and shimmy around until you can climb up and stand on
top of the ledge. Jump up again to reach the ledge above, and shimmy around
until you can get up on the platform.
Wall-run up the ledge on the right (water cascade down) and get up on that
ledge. Jump across to the ledge on the spinning axel. Jump across to the left
wall ledge and climb up to the top-most level. As you are hanging off the
ledge under the button, jump across to the ledges on the spinning axel, notice
that ONE ledge is missing from the 4 side -- so be careful. As you stand on
top of the ledge, get ready to jump across to hit the [button], and jump right
back to the ledge. The [gate] will now open. [Slow Time] if you can get it
very well. Fountain awaits you on the other side.
Get up the step and into the next room. Dispatch the guards, and then
exploding dogs will come. Jump out of the room and onto a broken platform then
turn left and jump up on the rock steps and move forward until you are between
two close walls. Do wall-to-wall jumps up until the platform above. Here,
you'd be attacked by a few guard and ninja girl. From where you jumped up, on
the right is a railing. Wall-run up the railing and stand on top of the
platform. Jump back across to the [block] that was in the center of the room,
then jump across to the ledges on the wall. Climb up to the top and you'd be
at a corner platform.
Wall-run on the RIGHT WALL and get to the next corner platform. Wall-run on
the RIGHT WALL again, to get to the [ladder]. Climb up and you'd find yourself
in a room. Kill what guards are here, and go up the small steps. On the right
are piles of rock, on left is a railing. Leap over the railing and drop down
one level to the next ledge (cut in the wall). Shimmy around the corner, and
jump across to the wooden platform attached to stone platform.
Ninja girls will pop out, but you can ignore them and find the [ladder] leading
down on the right of where you landed. The ladder is attached on the side of
the platform, so you can't see it unless you are hanging off the side of the
platform. Go down the [ladder] and you'd see a wooden [beam] and a pendulum
swinging back and forth. When time is right, jump across onto the [beam], then
across onto the platform.
In the room, wall-run on the RIGHT wall past the wall blades. It's best to run
when the first blade is going down. You'd catch onto [rope], run off the
[rope] then near the end of the run, jump across onto platform's ledge. Raise
yourself up and you'd find yourself in a corner again.
Wall-run on the RIGHT WALL (Prince perspective) and you'd be hanging off ledge.
Get down on ledge until you're standing on rock platform with [ladder]
attached. Go down the [ladder] and on the next platform, throw everyone off
into the abyss. When you are ready, wall-run up the railing on the left and
climb up onto the platform.
Wall-run up the wall to grab a hold of the ledge, then shimmy around the
corner. Jump across to the ledge, and drop down to the ledge below. Shimmy
around and drop down onto the platform. Run forward and turn right into the
entrance way. Wall-run on LEFT WALL. Run forward then turn left. Wall-run
on the RIGHT WALL, grab onto [rope] and run off [rope]. Turn and you should
see curtain of water.
Wall-run up to activate button, then do wall-to-wall jump up to the platform
above. Dispatch the enemies here. Run forward, jump across, turn left.
Wall-run on LEFT WALL, grab onto [rope] run off [rope]. Camera perspective
change, run down, turn right. Wall-run on RIGHT WALL, run forward and go into
[Time Portal] room. Go through the [Time Portal] into the past and exit the
[Time Portal] room, and you'd be greeted with fully functional traps.
Trap 1 - [2x Rotating Spike Column, Chasm] Wall run when the spike is going
down.
Trap 2 - [2x Rotating blades] Avoid the blade by walking past then rolling into
the hole. Then roll under the next blade.
Trap 3 - [Chasm, Wall blades] I would again, recommend wall-run on RIGHT WALL
when the first blade is going down. Second blade will be somewhat hard, as
it's hard to time the swing with the blade. I recommend [Slow Time].
Kill the exploding dog, and roll under the huge cog in the way. Jump across
the chasm, and toss the guards into the abyss. Run around the corner, then
hang off the platform. Jump across, then do wall-to-wall jump to lower
yourself to the bottom.
Kill more guards and dog, then wall-run on LEFT WALL catching the [rope] then
run off [rope] onto the platform. You can use the [button] here to activate
the spike traps that'd kill the guard.
Wall-run on the LEFT WALL toward the clockwork contraptions. Once you reach
the huge room, turn left and use your sword to bash open the weak wall. Run in
for some traps and the [Sixth Life Upgrade].
Trap 1 - [2x Smashing Bar] Easily avoided
Trap 2 - [Spiked floor, 3x rotating spike column] Start running forward when
the spiked column is going up then roll under it. Roll under the horizontal
spiked column, then roll under ANOTHER spiked column.
Trap 3 - [4x Smashing Bar, 2x rotating spike column] Climb on top of the first
smashing bar, then climb up on the next smashing bar. Wall-run on RIGHT WALL,
past the rotating spike columns and all. Roll to avoid the last smash bar.
Trap 4 - [2x Smashing Bar, 2x rotating spike column] Wall-run up then jump
backward onto the smashing bar as it's coming up. Jump to the next smashing
bar and jump across the rotating spike columns.
Congratulations on your life upgrade. Now backtrack out to the big open area.
With the bridge and where the Bomb Giant used to be.
If you're playing the XBOX version, and the bridge isn't there. You can try
this alternative method to get to the opposite side with the bomb Giant. I've
tried it, and failed miserably, but you can give it a shot.

Method 1

-- Original Email --
"go around the room past the levers that don't turn anymore, then drop onto the
raised bridge from a beam where u swing 2 some more beams normally. then walk
2wards where the end where the bomb giant is (sometimes hes there, sometimes
hes not, jus retry if hes not there.) from a corner (has 2 b a section where
you can hang off) jump 2wards the giant and if you hit him right you don't die
from the fall. kill the giant jump 2 the beam, etc..." <<-chad W>>
(I'm going to paraphrase him and add some stuff)
Use the FAQ below to get to where the [Life Upgrade] is and make sure the Bomb
Giant is there (if not, reload). Grab the [Life Upgrade] first then return to
the [Fountain]
Run-up the wall on your right to activate the switch for a platform. You'd
want to [Slow Time]. Run out of room, then wall-run on RIGHT WALL past the
spinning axel onto the activated [platform]. Climb up onto the platform, and
then drop down into room below to kill some guards. Smash the barrels next to
a [ladder] then climb up the [ladder]. Jump off the [ladder] onto the block.
Wait till the Bomb Giant toss some dogs at you and the block will drop down.
Shimmy around the block, and at 3 o'clock (the ladder is 12 o'clock) of the
[block] should be a corner area that you can jump into. Once at the corner,
wall-run on RIGHT WALL onto the next corner. Wall-run on RIGHT WALL onto the
ladder. Climb all the way up, and you'd find yourself at a [lever].
Get out onto the walkway on the left, wall-run on LEFT WALL when the smashing
stone is lowering. You'd land on the axel of the cog wheel in the middle.
Wall-run on RIGHT WALL and you'd grab hold onto ledge at end. Shimmy all the
way to the right, then drop down to the first cog wheel edge that spins around.
Drop yourself down to the next level below when the cog wheels matches up.
Soon as you drop down, when you are spinned till right next to wall, jump
off/drop onto [bar] that's waiting for you. Drop down onto the *** GLITCHED
PLATFORM ***
At this platform, you'd see that the platform is not really square, but rather
a octagon shaped with an edge toward the Bomb Giant that you can walk off and
kill yourself and two slanting edges that you can HANG off of. well, you have
to jump from the two slanting edges TOWARD the Bomb Giant. Bounce OFF the Bomb
Giant, and attempt to survive the fall in way that I cannot figure out. I keep
dying, but... this method seems promising, so I'm including it.
If you DO succeed, email me =) Anyway, continue on with the rest of the walk
through to get back to the [Central Hall].
################################################################################
Method 2
################################################################################
Cross the bridge. (Isn't it a lot easier if your version isn't glitched?)
################################################################################
Proceed toward the clock mechanism. Head to the right side. Wall-run up then
jump back to reach a [bar]. Swing up to [beam]. Stand on beam then jump to
[bar] on left. Swing to wall, jump back to reach higher [bar]. Swing up onto
[beam]. Jump across to [ladder]. Climb all the way up.
Go through the doorway to the left. Wall-run on LEFT WALL past the spokes of
the wheel. This might be a tad bit difficult. Start running when the spoke is
just disappearing.
Now, wall-run on RIGHT WALL past the spoke of another wheel. You'd have to
jump across at the end of the wall-run. Start running when you have just
enough room to get by.

Go to the lever, and turn it until it's facing the 9 o'clock position (with the
Fountain) as the 12 o'clock position. From the fountain, look on the other side
of the entrance and you should see a weapon's rack. Destroy that. [Wall run]
on the RIGHT WALL from there, and jump across to reach the platform. On the

at the end. Jump up, shimmy, jump up, jump up. Now, jump across the chasm to
reach platform. Wall run up, and get up on the top of the platform. Look to
your left, jump across to reach the clock tower entrance.

Go down the steps, kill an exploding dog, Wall-run on RIGHT WALL, then wall-run
on LEFT WALL. This is where it gets tricky.
If you wall-run on LEFT WALL, you'd fall to death because there's no ledge to
catch onto. If you wall-run on the RIGHT WALL, you'd meet the same fate if you
keep going. However, if you wall-run on LEFT WALL, stop running a bit, and
you'd catch hold of the [bar]. If you wall-run on RIGHT WALL, jump across at
the [bar] and you'd catch it too.
Swing off the [bar] and you'd see [Fountain]. This also looks to be a dead-end,
but, if you wall-run up the right wall right beside the [Fountain], and jump

Trap 2 - [Horizontal blade, spiked floor, 2x spiked column] Start running
through when you know the blade is coming and roll under the blade. Depending
on your luck, go either right or left against the spike columns. If left, hide
in the corner until time is right to run out and into the right side. It'd be
tough, use roll.
Trap 3 - [Horizontal blade, spiked floor, spiked columns] Start running when
you see the spiked columns are coming toward you about to turn around. Roll
under the blade and hope for the best. When you're at the end, wait for the

might have to twist the [lever] twice to open up the next section), past the
[gate] and into the room with the second [lever]. Turn the [lever] to reveal
the next room. Kill the new enemies, then in the room, you should find a [wall
switch]. Hang on it, and listen to the clicking sound. When the clicking stops
with a big click, [Slow Time] and run back to the [lever]. Turn it, then run to
the [gate] and through.
Climb on the [ladder] and go all the way up. Kill the two ninja girl. Turn
right, and run into a narrow walk way that opens up to a circular area. Turn

Walk out onto the [plank] extension toward the next archway, then jump off into
next area. You'd be on another set of [beam] now, walk forward. If you want to
get the artwork box below, feel free. Just move the box to corner, so you can
wall-run up and jump back onto the beam again.
Anyway, keep going through the [beams]. Drop down into the next area and you'd
find a [Fountain].
Run through the corridor and you'd find a spike column, and a [bar] at the end.
Wall-run on RIGHT WALL onto the [bar] and swing to the next [bar] when the
spiked column isn't around. Swing up to the platform. Turn left, and you'd
find ninja girl on the opposite end. Wall-run on the RIGHT WALL. Run up the

If you don't have the time to get the alternative ending, if you are stuck in
a glitch, if you just want to watch the ending video, or whatever -- visit...
http://www.rodtv.com/PoP-WW_SaveGames.zip
And download the save games. It's played in [Hard] mode, so if you want a
challenge, give the two different final bosses a try! Throughout the walkthru,
I'd mark locations where you can find the save game with the location, so you
can refer to it if you like.
Please note that I played through this very quickly without the intention of
actually making it public (else I'd have a save game for every section). So,
with that said, I don't have all the art works. Sorry! I do have all 9 life
upgrades, and you get to choose if you want to pick up the [Water Sword] or
not at the very end.
If you want to keep your old save games, you should move the content of the
directory CC:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\POPWWPROFILES
somewhere else.
To install the save games, just extract the content of the zip file into
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\
Throughout the walkthrough, if a PC savegame exists at that location, it'd be
marked with ((PC SAVEGAME MM/DD/YYYY ##:##))

[Part D: Using the Video Walkthrough]
*******************************************************************************
There are times when words just won't work very well, and a video would help
you through easily. I went back through the game again, and encoded 21 videos
from the beginning to both different endings for you to peruse.
The videos are kind of dark at times, so if you have trouble seeing, try
adjusting the gamma of the display. If that doesn't work, just... strain your
eyes REALLY hard!
To download the video walkthrough, visit
http://www.rodtv.com/PoP-WW/index.html
Please note that the files on the website are what's called "Torrent" files.
They need to be loaded into a BitTorrent client like Azureus, and THEN the
download for the actual video file will begin. The files are encoded with
XviD, so to watch them, you'd need a XviD decoder. I recommend using Matroska
Pack. You'd find links to both Azureus and Matroska Pack from the website.
There'd come a time, when the file will run out of "seeds." When that happens,
email me, and I'd seed them. And likewise, if you can help seed the files,
please do!
